OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERACraigroyston Community High School commemorated Remembrance Day by holding two special assemblies led by the pupils.  A selection of words, hymns, songs, and poetry, along with a moving video featuring the stories of a variety of veterans were presented to pupils and staff.

At 11am precisely the whole school came to a standstill as everyone stood for the two minute silence.  The wreath laying was carried out by two representatives from each year group accompanied by a piper playing Flowers of the Forest. Honoured guests included local councillors, veterans, parents and council officials.OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA
