School pupils paid their respects to the heroes of the Great War during a trip to Belgium.

Year nine students from Ramsey Academy visited a number of famous location around the country, including The Trench of Death and a visit to the military hospital cemetery of Lijssenthoek.

The pupils also visited the Menin Gate, where they attended a Last Post ceremony and students Zac Liley, Becky Woods, Aiden Pye and Callum Hall all helped to lay a wreath at the memorial.

Joint history leader Alice Perrins said: "The pupils’ behaviour was fantastic throughout the trip and their conduct was a real highlight for the staff.

"They were interested at all of the sites and although tired by the end really embraced the opportunity to learn on location."
