Big thanks to our Gr. 4/5 students for hosting our Remembrance Day Assembly on Nov. 10. It was a beautiful time that honoured those who have gone before us to fight for peace around the world. We were joined by special guests, Mr. Gaschnitz (Past President of the Nelson Legion), and Sailor 3rd Class (S3) Madison Storey (Canadian Navy, Material Management Technician, CFB Esquimalt). Students presented renditions of "In Flanders Fields" and the poem, "Indian Veterans" to honour Indigenous Veterans. They also played the ukulele and sang "Imagine" to conclude our time. It was a great time of remembrance, honour and pausing to consider how we can take steps to bring peace around the world. Thanks to parents and guests for joining us!
