LEST WE FORGET
Yesterday, our staff and students gathered in the Atrium to honour those who served.
Before the two minute silence, we were moved by original music composed by our Music aproduction students, pieces they created as part of their coursework, making this Rememberance Day even more meaningful.
A moment of silence, reflection and gratitude.
We will remember them ๐น
#RemembranceDay #LestWeForget
WE WILL REMEMBER THEM ๐
Today on Armistice Day we join the nation to pause for a two-minute silence to pay our respects to our Armed Forces community, past and present.
At the eleventh hour on the eleventh day of the eleventh month โ we will remember them.
"When you go home, tell them of us and say,
For your tomorrow, we gave our today."
