Honouring Remembrance Day
On Remembrance Day, we pause to honour the courage, sacrifice, and service of those who have served, and continue to serve, in the pursuit of peace and freedom. Their dedication reminds us of the profound cost of conflict and the importance of working together toward understanding and harmony.
As educators, we hold a unique role in helping students learn not only the history of these sacrifices but also the values of empathy, respect, and peacebuilding. In classrooms across Thames Valley, teachers guide thoughtful discussions, create moments of reflection, and inspire students to see themselves as contributors to a more just and peaceful world. Thank you, teachers, for ensuring these sacrifices are never forgotten.
On this Remembrance Day, may we take time to reflect, to remember, and to reaffirm our shared commitment to teaching peace in a challenging time.
Lest we forget.
