Remembrance Day


Heritage proudly presented a tribute to the men and women who have fought and died for the freedom that we are able to experience today. The Secondary two and three classes were invited to share in the tribute that ranged from the opening service with bagpipes and the entry of The Royal Mounted Police and our cadets to five students who read their winning essays on what Remembrance Day meant for them to a touching speech by one of Heritage’s mothers who described her role in the cavalcade on the Highways for Heroes. The presentation was overwhelming and heart felt. But also what was moving was the response from the student audience who were noticeable affect by the overall experience.
