History of Poppy Day: Historical Story
We wear the poppy as a symbol of remembrance and respect for those who made the ultimate sacrifice for us. This is the story of how the poppy became that symbol.
We have both a printable PDF and a PowerPoint presentation (please use the orange button to download and present in slide show mode) to display the story in the classroom.
