    3. National Flag Day

    On February 15th Canadians celebrated the 50th anniversary of our flag. National Flag of Canada Day was a time to celebrate the shared values and traditions that are fundamental to our identities as Canadians. To celebrate and bring awareness as a school we gathered around the flag pole and sang O’Canada as Mr. Gilmore raised the flag.

    Please take the time to read the attachments to this e-Bulletin. They provide information regarding school and community initiatives.
