The Vinehall Remembrance Service was dedicated to all those men and women who have sacrificed so much in the conflicts undertaken by this country.

Prayers were included for the old Vinehall pupils who are currently serving in the Armed Forces and for those who dedicate their time to save lives and support those who are affected by conflict.

The Last Post was played by pupil Julian Moore, who also played at the Remembrance service at Crowhurst Church on Sunday.

At the conclusion of the service, wreaths were laid at the flagpole by the Head Boy, Alex Targett, and Head Girl, Araminta Knight, with Rev. Channer, the Headmaster, Mr Richard Follett and the School Bursar, Colonel John Webster O.B.E.
