Remembrance Day







Today at Riverside School we held a Rembrance Day Assembly. Ewan was our Master of Ceremony. Ewan Welcomed all of our guests and parents to the assembly as well as told us about why we have this special day. The best part was his statememt - We are Canadians because of the great sacrifices that the brave men and women made for us and all that we can really say is Thank You. The Upper Elem. choir sang "Imagine" by John Lenon. The grade class recited the poem, "Little Poppy". Beth, McKenzie and Kinly recited "In Flander's Field". We had a special guest- Corporal Liam Talty, he gave us a peek into what Rembrance Day means to Soldiers. Abby Haney from CHHS joined us and performed the "Last Post" on her trumpet. We ended our Assembly with Bethany and Tessa leading the school in O'Canada.
