Students involved in the remembrance assembly at CKSS related stories of 44 former students who were killed in World War Two.
Although they have done it before, each year the service takes a new approach and teacher Stan Sharp says it is a major undertaking and takes the best part of a year to prepare.
"It's the biggest student involvement project at the school," he says. "When you take all our musicians our greeters all the speakers all the cadets we are usually at around 60 to 70 kids."
Sharp says the students and the school takes the event seriously.
"We put a lot of emphasis on this ceremony , it's a big part of our school culture it is a big part of our school tradition," he says. "A lot of the kids who appreciate history appreciate that this is a big part of their school experience."
The assembly is presented twice, so the entire student body sees it, along with invited veterans, legion members, relatives of the former students being honoured, and the general public.
The 44 students attended Chatham Vocational School which CKSS replaced in the early 1960s.
