Remembrance Day

Now that Halloween has come and gone and November is upon us, it is time to start thinking about the upcoming Remembrance Day and what it means. Remembrance Day is a day in Canada that commemorates the sacrifices that Canadians have made in conflict. Many people wear red poppies that symbolize the memory of those who have passed away serving our country. Over the next week, we will be learning a little more about Remembrance Day and will be ending the week with McMillan's annual Remembrance Day assembly. Each class creates a wreath of poppies and lays it down at the assembly in remembrance. Parents are welcome to attend this assembly - it will be held on Friday, November 8th at 8:35 am.

Don't forget to donate and purchase a poppy in remembrance!
