Message from our Chaplain Mairie
Marking Remembrance
Over the past weeks, our Art staff have worked with students and visitors to create a striking ‘Poppy Remembrance’ dress, which is now on display in the foyer. Our photo also shows our site manager, wearing his regimental tie and badge.
We were very proud and moved to be able to show our respect at 11.00am on Thursday 11th November, when the whole school observed the Two Minute Silence, as a community, on the main yard, a wreath was laid by the Sixth Form senior prefects and the silence was brought to a close by the playing of The Last Post and Reveille by Edward from Year 8.
On Remembrance Sunday many of our students will represent their cadet and scout groups across Cheshire and a wreath from St Nicholas’ will be presented at Northwich Cenotaph.
“O God of truth and justice, we hold before you those whose memory we cherish, and those whose names we will never know. Help us to lift our eyes above the torment of this broken world and grant us the grace to pray for those who wish us harm. Amen.”
November is a time for remembrance and we will remember our own loved ones with stars in the chapel and our Book of Remembrance.
