On 11th November 2016, Sir George Monoux Sixth Form College held its annual Remembrance Service to honour the former pupils and staff of the College who have lost their lives in armed conflict. Over 140 pupils died during World War I and II. Former pupil Jason Burt was sadly killed in conflict in the Falklands War in 1982, still a boy aged just 17.

Current students and staff were joined by a large number of 'Old Monovians' many of whom attended Sir George Monoux Grammar School, as it was known then, during World War II.

A full list of the fallen can be found here: www.oldmonovians.com/old-monovians/remembrance.html

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.
