Poppy Cross Event at St Peter's

Friday 6th November 2026 at 11:00–12:00

Year 6 pupils from St Peter’s School will attend a brief service at St Peter’s Church. They will read out a short eulogy for each of those buried in the cemetery and afterwards place a Poppy Cross on each of the graves of the fallen soldiers. The final poppy cross will be laid at the Memorial Wall, along with the reading out of the names of the fallen who are buried elsewhere and prayers will be said to end the proceedings.
