Students at City of Wolverhampton College will be honouring those who suffered or died at war at a Remembrance parade on Friday, 10 November.
Around 70 students, from five detachments, who are studying for qualifications in uniformed public services, will be holding the service at the college’s Wellington Road campus in Bilston.
The students, wearing their college-branded uniforms and remembrance poppies, will form up in the college quadrangle and two standard bearers will parade in the union jack and college flag.
The service will include a reading of the Ode of Remembrance by a health and social care student, which will also be read in Italian by an IT student, before the assembled company is called to attention for a two-minute silence at 11am.
Student Abigail Spencer, aged 17, who is studying for a Level 3 diploma in protective services and wants to be a police officer, said: “It is an honour to remember those who fought for us and good that, as part of the college, we have the opportunity to take part in such an important occasion.”
Students, apprentices and staff from across the college will be attending the service which will also be streamed live on the college’s YouTube channel here
