Remembrance Day Assembly
This Monday, all KCSS staff and students participated in Remembrance Day Assemblies. The assemblies contained performances by the KCSS Stage Band (including O Canada and the Last Post performed by Alexandra Valkanas), a French rendition of Flanders Fields and remarks by Principal Mr. D’Amico. The Guest of Honour was Private Dougan from the Canadian Armed Forces. He spoke to staff and students about his experience in the military, as well as Canada’s wartime history. It was a solemn assembly to mark an important day. Thank you to Ms. Littlejohn and Mr. Bentley for organizing.
