In honour of Remembrance Day, the annual CCF Remembrance Parade took place, bringing together Cadets from the Navy, Army and RAF sections. They paraded in unison on the Croquet Lawn, a symbol of solidarity and respect. The ceremony began with a prayer for the fallen, followed by a solemn reading of the names of Old Haberdashers who lost their lives in service during both World Wars. The ceremony concluded with the laying of wreaths at the School’s Memorial. It was a moving tribute honouring the service and sacrifice of those who have given their lives.
On Remembrance Sunday, Year 6 pupils from the Junior and Prep School participated in a community parade in Radlett to pay their respects to those who served in the armed forces. Marching alongside veterans, families and local organisations, both Habs Girls and Habs Boys joined in a collective moment of reflection and unity. The students’ participation was a touching tribute, underscoring the younger generation’s respect and gratitude for those who made the ultimate sacrifice. The ceremony included a moment of silence and a wreath-laying, underscoring the importance of remembrance and community.
On Remembrance Day itself, special assemblies were held. This afternoon, the Junior and Prep pupils gathered once more on the Croquet Lawn for a series of readings, the Last Post and a two-minute silence, before laying a wreath to remember the lost.
Thanks to all those who attended our Remembrance events and to the students who represented Habs with such dignity and respect. These ceremonies are a powerful reminder of the importance of remembering those who have served.
Lest We Forget.
