A moving service this year to celebrate the centenary of the 1918 Armistice, with respectful attendance by members of the Heritage Society; Rehoboth Chapel; staff, pupils and parents of Five Roads School; local dignitaries and especially families of the fallen of both World Wars.
As ever, the children were in glorious voice, and was warmly appreciated by all who were enthralled by their performance.
In addition, the pupils were pleased to announce that the school was honoured to receive the status of 'Peaceful School' gained as part of a National Peaceful Movement to promote peace in the school, community and the wider world. They are among the first schools in Wales to receive this accolade which was presented to them at the Temple of Peace in Cardiff. Many, many congratulations to them for honouring the school and the community.
The weather was on our side this year and we were able to conclude the service with the laying of the wreaths outside on our War Memorial.
