Spalding’s Ayscoughfee Hall School won first prize in a competition to commemorate the centenary of the outbreak of World War One.

All the work was completed in extra curriculum clubs by children from Year 3 upwards.

They completed a woven picture of Flanders fields, a mosaic poppy wreath and a book of creative writing imagining what it must have been like to be a soldier in the Great War.

Three pupils presented books of remembrance to the Dean in a special service of commemoration held in Lincoln Cathedral, where they met the Bishop of Lincoln.
