This is an assembly to be delivered in an 11-18 comprehensive secondary school to all year groups. It explains the origins of Remembrance day whilst focusing on acts of individual heroism in the carnage of the First World War. It also brings remembrance up to date, marking the 25th anniversary of British participation in the UN peacekeeping mission in Kosovo and explains the work of the RBL today. Included are notes at the bottom of slides to provide further information I would include and instruction on what I would say to transition from slide to slide.
