Remembrance Day

I am always so awestruck by our little school! They always go above and beyond in everything they do! Each year they have a mini Remembrance Day service to honor those who have so bravely fought for our freedom! Each grade participated in some way and the Junior high band played! The service started with the junior high playing O Canada, then the Grade 1/2 class sang a a song about their own two hands! I could hear Armin so good, he loves to sing! The message was great, about using your own two hands for good, to comfort others, to show kindness!


Then the grade 3/4 did a little skit about no bullies on the playground! Calum had his lines memorized and you could just see how proud he was of himself!!! I was proud of him too!!! The Grade 5/6 class sang a song about being thankful for their freedom! Then a man who was a member of the military read a speech going out to all the schools!! It was great seeing this man and being able to clap for all he has done in making our country a better place!! I’m happy the kids got to see nd hear it too!! We listened to the last post and stood for a minute of silence, then the band finished the service by a playing “Stand by Me”! It was a great rememinder of why we are here and all we have to be thankful for!!!
