Hampshire school hunting former pupils for Remembrance Day ceremony
A Hampshire school is inviting former pupils who served in the military to join a First World War centenary ceremony on Remembrance Day.
Kings’ School in Winchester is asking veterans who attended its predecessors to join the old boys of St Thomas’s School, who mark the traditional ceremony every year.
St Thomas’s was the forerunner to The Montgomery of Alamein School, which merged with the Danemark School to form Kings’ in 1985.
Its old boys will attend the First World War centenary ceremony in military dress and lay a wreath containing names of fellow pupils.
The school is inviting veteran alumni of Danemark, Montgomery and Kings’ to attend the centenary ceremony on November 11.
