Remembrance Day Chapel

Mr. Hanlon led the middle campus chapel this morning. He challenged us all to take some time to truly reflect on the sacrifices that have been made in the past and to be grateful for the freedom we enjoy today. We all went outside and stood for a minute of silence and listened to Kaitlyn play The Last Post on the trumpet.

6B - Week of November 8 - 12 UPDATE

In addition to what the post below on this week states, 6B will also be having a quiz on the history of India. The post below can help the students study for the test. The focus is not so much on memorizing dates and names, but rather on understanding and explaining the "why" questions.
Let me know if you have any questions.
Mr. Bisschop

6B - History of India

Remembrance Day 2010

A NEED FOR SILENCE

No different now than years gone by
For freedom, still our soldiers die
So we can live.

Risking safety once again today
Enemies encountered on the way
To a successful mission.

Road side bombs; bullets flying
Hear their screams; hear the crying
Of those we love.

Helicopters swirl desert sand
Rescuing yet another man
Whose life is threatened.

Flags we fly and poppies wear
Emotions held, we now can bare
Just how we feel.

So many wars; so many lost
Left alone we wear the cost
A poppy red.

They gave their lives to defend
Say a prayer for it to end
And always, REMEMBER.
