On Thursday, November 9 at 11:00 a.m., students, staff and parents took time to remember those who have fallen during our Remembrance Day Ceremony that was organized by Mrs. Asquini with assistance from many teachers.
Thank you to Mrs. Asquini, Capt. Niedzielski (Guest Speaker), Mr. David Maclean (Honor Guard), Ms. Kwantes (Choral Director), and Zohan Chan (Accompanist) for your contributions to the Ceremony.
The ceremony began with the the choir leading the singing of O Canada in both English and French.
After a presentation from Capt. Niedzielski, poems were read by NHS students.
Alexander read “In Flanders Fields.”
Alicia read “Poppies,” a poem that she wrote.
Roshan read “Why Wear a Poppy?”
While the choir sang Highway of Heroes, Grade 9 students escorted student representatives from K-9 by candlelight to lay a wreath.
