The Deepings School marks VE Day

Pupils entered into the spirit of remembrance and celebration to mark the 80th anniversary of VE Day.

The Deepings School had a busy agenda on VE Day (May 8) with lessons including codebreaking, war poetry and 1940s music.

Lower school pupils made poppies - symbols of remembrance - from recycled muffin cases and penned heartfelt messages of thanks to honour those who served during the Second World War.

Sixth formers also celebrated in style with a street party, and pupil Ben performed two popular songs from the wartime on the harmonica.

In the dinner hall, there was a menu of mince and onion pie along with chocolate sponge and custard to emulate a post war victory meal.

Kirstie Johnson, headteacher at The Deepings School, said: “It has been an honour for our school to ensure that the significance of VE Day and the sacrifices made during those challenging years are remembered and understood.”
