Lest We Forget

For the past few weeks our students have been learning about the significance of Remembrance Day.  They have been reading and hearing stories, researching and sharing family anecdotes.  While being sensitive to age appropriate lessons, students have learned about Canada’s role in conflicts both past and present.  While Canada’s veterans walk among us, it is too rare that we reflect on the sacrifices that they made for their country.  Earlier this week, our intermediate classes had the opportunity to visit the Enderby Legion and our Cenotaph.  These visits gave us an important glimpse into the lives of the soldiers and the reason why it is so important to remember.
