Sowing of Poppy Seeds 8 November 2013 (by Carol Sambrook) |
On Friday 8th November, 2013 our year 5 children went to Emstrey Crematorium to help with the sowing of a commemorative Poppy Field for the 100th year anniversary of the start of the 1st World War in 2014
The children had a small service and were given a commemorative card with the following poems:
Poppy:
Poppy we are but children small
We are too little to do it all
Children you may do your part
Love each other is how you start
Play without fighting
Share your games and toys
Be kind and thoughtful .
To all girls and boys.
Remembrance Day:
We wear a poppy
On Remembrance Day
And at eleven
We stand and pray
Wreaths are put
Upon a Grave
As we remember
Our Soldiers brave.
