Remembrance Day<br />
Students from Garden International School paid respects to victims of war during a moving<br />
Remembrance Day service.<br />
At GIS there was a special whole school assembly where a minute's silence was observed<br />
and the Last Post was played on November 11. At 11.11am, students and staff stood for a<br />
minute's silence to remember the fallen.<br />
Students also read out several poems, including<br />
one by a Vietnamese poet to highlight the fact<br />
that Remembrance Day thinks about the victims<br />
of conflict from all around the globe.<br />
Several Secondary<br />
students travelled to<br />
Kanchanaburi to visit a<br />
War Cemetery and take<br />
part in a ceremony to lay<br />
wreaths. Pictured above right is a Year 10 student with British<br />
Ambassador to Thailand, Mr Mark Kent.<br />
A Year 7 student, Liang Liang, used black and red rubber bands<br />
to make a mini poppy. She then gave this to teachers to wear on<br />
their identity lanyard. Students raised 11,948 baht for the British<br />
Legion by buying poppies – an amazing achievement.
