One of our pupils took part in D-Day Celebrations in Normandy

Posted 10th June 2024

Matthew Appleton (Y10) - took part in the D-Day celebrations in Normandy, France. He met various dignitaries, including the King and Queen and the Prime Minister and also spoke to a number of veterans. He shared some of the stories he had learnt with the Y10 History class today and has agreed to do some talks for some of our KS3 classes once the exams are over. He also appeared on the BBC website https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cv224rk5pg3o (see picture below). If you see him please ask about him about his experiences. He is very proud and also has a commemorative medal he was given which he has to show.
