Armistice Day/ Remembrance Day Featured

Written by Huia Brown

The 11th of November marks the anniversary of Armistice day, the day the Great War ended. After a horrific 4 years (1914-1918) of war it finally came to a halt when Germany and the Allied Powers signed an armistice. During our trip to France we had the privilege to visit Compienge, the place the Armistice was signed. We visited many war museums, at one I was grateful to meet Siham and Nicolas, teachers of College Jean Fernel, Stratford High School’s partner school in the Shared Histories project.
