The College's annual Remembrance Day commemorations took place on Sunday 12 November.

Following the service in the College Chapel, cadets paraded on College Field as part of the Act of Remembrance.

After the playing of the Last Post and the two-minutes silence, wreaths were laid by the war memorial by Headmaster Tom Lawson, on behalf of the College; Chairman of Governors Philip Broadley (Wargrave 1974-79), representing the Governors; Jan Koops (Gonville 1971-76), on behalf of Old Eastbournians; and Cadet WOI Alex Davies, representing the Combined Cadet Force.

With the conclusion of the Act of Remembrance, those attending were invited to the Warren Atrium for a short reception with refreshments.
