5th Year Trip to Ypres

The 5th Year, along with 10 staff, spent 3 days in Ypres.

The boys visited several cemetaries to see Old Summerfieldians who had given their lives in two World Wars, attended the Last Post Ceremony at the Menin Gate, sang evensong at St George's Church and walked the battlefields. Leisurely mealtimes with good food and a visit to a theme park provided lots of relaxation . The boys returned tired, but in the knowledge that they had paid their respects to those who had guarenteed our freedom.
