Remembrance Day

Respect: Wreaths laid at the Sandwich war memorial |
Grammar School service
MORE than 750 students at Dover Grammar School for Boys, crowded into the school’s Great Hall, and fell silent for two minutes last Thursday. The school Armistice Remembrance Service was conducted by governor the Reverend Andrew Bawtree.
Taking part were members of the school’s RAF and army cadet corps with their Standard. Headmaster Dr Richard Moxham explained the significance of the ceremony and head prefect Toby Fuller recited the exhortation.
Two wreaths were laid, one in memory of Battle of Britain
hurricane pilot Keith Gillman, an old boy of the school, and one in memory of
all the old boys killed in the two World Wars.
