Monmouth School for Boys marked Armistice Day with a socially-distanced service at 11.am.

Headmaster, Mr Simon Dorman, a class of History students and President of the Old Monmothian Club, Mr Simon George, were among those who paid tribute.

History teacher, Mr James Boiling, was also involved in the Act of Remembrance led by the Chaplain, Reverend Clifford Swartz.

Despite the on-going coronavirus restrictions, the school still paid its tribute to the fallen.

Armistice Day falls on 11th November each year – the day in 1918 that the armistice was signed to end the First World War after four years of fighting.

This year’s commemorations also fall in line with the 75th anniversary of the end of the Second World War.
