Today, more than 900 pupils and 200 staff gathered in front of the Gate of Honour for our Remembrance Day service. Governors, Old Millhillians and members of the local community joined us for the laying of wreaths. Jonny T (Fifth Form, McClure) played the Last Post. Together we observed the two-minute silence, which ended with Reveille.

The Gate of Honour takes pride of place in front of the School. It commemorates former pupils who lost their lives in the two world wars and the Falklands conflict. Today, the whole community walked through the Gate together in their memory. The respect pupils showed throughout the service was a credit to them and to their families.
