Members of St Peter and St Oswald's were honored to share their memories last week as part of the Nether Edge Primary Schools remembrance activities.
🎖️ Remembering Together at Nether Edge Primary School
Today, our Year 6 pupils took part in a very special assembly to mark Remembrance Day.
We were honoured to welcome a group of local senior citizens - Joan Wragg, Peter Allen, Anne Diver and Phil Lovell - who shared their memories of living through the Second World War.
The visitors spoke about their experiences of the Sheffield Blitz, schools being used as hospitals, and how teachers and children adapted to life in wartime Britain. One of our guests even attended Abbeydale Primary School, as Nether Edge was known in the 1930s.
The session offered our pupils a powerful reminder of the importance of remembrance, community, and learning from those who lived through history.
We are especially grateful to Lola P’s grandfather, who helped to arrange and bring this inspiring group into school.
Lest we forget. 🌺
