We remember the people that have lost their lives for us and it is important as they made a sacrifice. We think Jesus would be upset that people were fighting, but happy that people made peace.

Those people gave their lives so that we can be here today. We are sorry that people passed away in the war. It is important to remember those who have died. We wear red poppies to remember the soldiers who gave their lives for the country.

We thought back to when we dressed as people from the war last week. We discussed why poppies help us to remember those who have fought for our country. We said a prayer together as a class.

We have upmost respect for those people who fought and lost their lives in the wars to give us a better life. We are thankful to all of those who helped in the war. Poppies allow us to remember all of the fallen soldiers.

In U3 we discussed that the money raised when selling poppies go to the veterans and that we should be thankful that the soldiers died in battle to give us a better future.

We understand the importance of taking time to reflect upon those that lost their lives during the war. We showed our support by wearing our poppies and doing our minute silence all together.

We wear poppies to show our respect for people who have fought and died in the wars. We think it is a great way to show respect as these are the only flowers that grew on the battlefield after the wars had ended.

We have been reflecting on the importance of Remembrance Day. We have been using our knowledge from our History topic, Bolton in the War topic and thinking about the sacrifices that were made.

We remember those that fought in wars because they gave us our freedom. Life would be very different had they not fought for us. The appeal is important because we can show our support will always always be with them.

We really enjoyed this weeks video. It made us feel a little sad about all the people that lost their lives but also very thankful that we can live freely today.
