Remembrance Day – Honouring Those Who Served

As we prepare for our upcoming Remembrance Day assembly, we would like to offer students, families, and staff the opportunity to participate in a special tribute honouring those who have served, or are currently serving, in the Canadian Armed Forces or an Allied/Commonwealth military.

If you have a family member or loved one who has served or is currently serving, we would be honoured to include them in our Remembrance Day tribute.

Participation is completely optional. If you would like to have someone recognized, please send us:

A photo of the individual (if available)
Their name
Their relationship to the student or staff member (for example: grandfather, grandmother, parent, aunt, uncle, sibling, etc.)
Their rank or position while serving, if known
Whether they served in the past or are currently serving

To participate, please email the requested information and photo to dania.olson@gshare.blackgold.ca by Friday, October 23rd.

We will respectfully share these photos and details as part of our Remembrance Day presentation as a way of recognizing the individuals in our school community whose lives have been connected to military service.

We welcome submissions for those who served, or are currently serving, in any branch of the Canadian Armed Forces or an Allied/Commonwealth military.

Thank you for helping us create a meaningful opportunity for our students to learn about remembrance, service, sacrifice, and the importance of honouring those who have contributed to our country.

Lest we forget.

Student Drop-Off & Pick-Up

With over 1000 people at the school each day, your help is appreciated to facilitate safe drop-offs and pick-ups.

Ways to assist:

Please do NOT go straight across the road out of the drive-thru, as it blocks vehicles behind you.
Follow the direction of our crosswalk supervisors
If using the drive-through, follow the direction of the green arrows during peak times
Do not park in the no-parking zones across the street from the school
Do not block the driveways of neighbouring residents
Review bike, scooter, and pedestrian safety with your child
Have a planned meeting spot away from high-traffic locations
Do not use either of the staff parking lots for drop-offs and pick-ups
