Remembering










Students and staff of Algoma District School Board thoughtfully remembered and reflected on the actions of the many service people who help secure our freedom and rights as Canadians and citizens of the world. The following touching images show a solemn reflection of remembrance in one of our schools. Student leaders with support from their teachers reached out to their school and community, asking them to participate by sharing their memories, artifacts and wishes for Peace.


Let us remember and reflect on our continued responsibility to one another . We can make a difference as responsible citizens of our world. In remembering one another through acts of kindness and reflecting on what is really important, we can accomplish anything, together.

A Time To Reflect

A Remembrance Day Ceremony to Remember


The mood was somber as GrandView students respectfully entered the auditorium focusing on the ceremony about to begin. Students and staff sat facing one another in an octagonal formation, much like a United Nations gathering. Community neighbours joined in as part of the school community to listen intently to poignant presentations given by each class.



Those involved in this moving ceremony pondered the significance of the day while reflecting on the important messages shared; respect and appreciation for our veterans, insurmountable courage, loyalty, pride in citizenship of such an amazing country as Canada and above all hope for a future of peace and unity.
