Scalford Primary School visited the Melton Mowbray Royal British Legion to deliver homemade cookies for all the Remembrance Day parade helpers.

The children looked at model scenes from wartime, photos and memorial plaques courtesy of Bob Wilson, branch chairman.

Inventive students at MV16 created a stunning poppy installation and made lapel poppies for this year’s Poppy Appeal. They also sold poppies at break times and their open evening, which raised £236.
