Today, as a school, we took part in Remembrance Day. Reception to Year 5 went into our 'Memorial Garden' for a service and observed a two minute silence. Our Year 6 children walked into Appley Bridge to the war memorial and led their own service. Here they lay a wreath on behalf of the school. We are extremely proud of how reflective and kind our children have been observing such an important day. ![Image of Reception Autumn Activities](https://files.schudio.com/appley-bridge-all-saints/imagecache/720x440c/news/PXL_20261019_125453066.jpg) 10 Nov [2026-11-10-reception-autumn-activities](https://appleybridgeallsaints.lancs.sch.uk/news/2026-11-10-reception-autumn-activities) #### [Reception Autumn Activities](https://appleybridgeallsaints.lancs.sch.uk/news/2026-11-10-reception-autumn-activities) Reception have been exploring autumn by looking closely at a variety of pumpkins and describing them.
