Flags at the Catholic Education Centre and at all St. Clair Catholic schools will be lowered to half mast in honour of Remembrance Day, on Friday, November 11, 2022.
“Each year in our school communities and at the CEC, we pause to honour and reflect upon the sacrifices of the brave women and men from Canada’s Armed Forces, who have served the cause of freedom in wars, conflicts and peacekeeping missions around the world,” says Scott Johnson, Director of Education. “We give thanks to God for their service to our country and their commitment to world peace, as we pray for His blessings of comfort for their families.”
They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.
From For the Fallen, by Laurence Binyon.
