Rememberance Day



Lest We Forget!


We had a very moving ceremony in the gym today to commemorate our fallen soldiers. We sang songs like "Highway of Heroes", "We are the World" and "Waving Flag". Thanks to Daniel for reading a poem to the school. It was all very moving!




Hey kids, as promised I have attached picture of my trip to Italy from a few years ago. This is a huge monument at Monte Casino - This one cemetery/monument site is for over a 1,000 Polish soldiers that dies fighting for our freedom. Many were very young men who died as you can see in the one picture!
