Wreath Laying - 1st July 2022

On behalf of the School and the Headmaster, I would like to thank the Old Marians that joined us for Wreath Laying at Westminster Abbey on Friday 1st July. It was a memorable day and a great honour to be a part of.

The day consisted of a ‘meet and greet’ at the Westminster Arms, following a short service at the Queen Elizabeth Chapel inside the iconic Abbey where the Wreath Laying ceremony takes place. Here we were joined by Year 7 pupils, senior pupils, and school staff for the duration of the ceremony.

This year the Wreath Laying was followed by a personal tour of the Houses of Parliament, kindly arranged by local MP, Rt Hon Valerie Vaz who is a great support to the school.

We ended the afternoon with lunch at Sanctuary House, across from the Abbey.

The tradition of Wreath Laying plays a huge part in preserving the history of the School and we hope you will continue to help us maintain these traditions by joining us next year.
