A Tribute to Sacrifice 

Remembrance Day at Alleyn’s is a cherished tradition that resonates deeply with the community, bringing together pupils, staff, and families in a solemn tribute to those who have given their lives in service of their country. 

Each year over Remembrance brings together over 500 cadets and CFAVs from Alleyn's, Dulwich College, and JAGS in a uniformed parade through the heart of Dulwich. The procession culminates in a wreath-laying ceremony and moments. This followed by the annual Edward Alleyn Club's Remembrance Day service at Christ Chapel of God’s Gift. 

This year’s commemoration was enriched by a special Remembrance Day football match between Alleyn's and Rossall School, commemorating 80 years since Alleyn’s School was evacuated to Lancashire and shared Rossall School’s facilities during World War II. A commemoration of our shared history and in honour of the sacrifice of past generations. Read more here. 

Yesterday, the school community gathered in the quad as some of our Senior Cadets formed the Guard of Honour and the Drum Head Party. Rev Lander together with Mrs Lunnon layed our Standard on the Drum head and we reflected as a community about duty and service.
