Matthew Druzcz, Student
Trustee, lays a wreath at the Victoria Park Cenotaph in London, as
Wilma de Rond, Director of Education and Bill Hall, Vice Chair, look
on. The three laid the wreath on behalf of the London District
Catholic School Board to remember those who have made the ultimate
sacrifice and given their lives in war so we may live in peace.
Thousand of people jammed the park to pay their respects. The
Knights of Columbus was one of the many groups involved in the military
parade to the Cenotaph. (Below) There were Remembrance Day services
all across the Board this week, as each of our school marked the day
in a special way. For a look at what some of the schools did,
