St. Charles Catholic Elementary School in Chelmsford hosted its annual Remembrance Day Ceremony today, in partnership with Royal Canadian Legion Branch 553. This meaningful ceremony is a tradition that has been an important part of the school community for over 20 years, honouring the sacrifices of veterans and those who continue to serve.

Each year, the ceremony not only pays tribute to all of Canada’s veterans, but also helps students deepen their understanding of the many roles and histories of service members in our community. The school continues to proudly display handmade poppies, artwork, and displays throughout the building as a visible reminder of remembrance.

This year’s ceremony was made extra special with coverage from CTV Northern Ontario‘s – Angela Gemmill. Watch the story below to witness how the St. Charles school community comes together in respect, reflection, and gratitude.

Thank you to Royal Canadian Legion Branch 553 for your ongoing commitment to our schools. Your stories and presence help our students understand why we remember, and the role we all play in building a future grounded in peace and freedom.
