We had a wonderful Remembrance Day assembly and community event at the cenotaph yesterday. Our students were engaged in thoughtful discussion and reflection in their classrooms and community. It was nice to welcome parents to our assembly and showcase student artwork, poetry, songs and a Remembrance Day display. Our choir did a fantastic job performing at the community event.
