Remembrance Day Activities and Assembly Planner

Forces Life

This session plan will enable children and young people to explore the meaning of Remembrance Day for themselves and others, with questions such as:

  • What is Remembrance Day and why do we wear poppies?
  • What does Remembrance Day mean to me?
  • Why do we remember?

It also includes scenario cards and instructions to collaboratively plan a respectful and inclusive school assembly.
