Remembrance Day - November 11th
On November 11th, St. Philip School will be hosting two grade level ceremonies for our school.
From October 24 through to Remembrance Day - November 11th, millions of Canadians wear a Poppy as a visual pledge to never forget those who served and sacrificed. The red flower also is the symbol of the Legion's Poppy Campaign, raising funds to support Veterans and their families.
Students at St. Philip School will be given a Poppy on November 11th in their homeroom class.
Students are invited to bring to school a small donation for the poppies. Funds raised will be donated to the Richmond Branch of the Royal Canadian Legion.
We invite members of the parent community who are service members with the Canadian Armed Forces to help commemorate the day. Click HERE to complete a form by November 9th if you are able to join us.
Dressing For the Weather
Students are to come to school dressed appropriately for the weather. As the temperatures drop, warmer layers, hats and mitts in students' backpacks, and extra socks are encouraged. Students will still be going outside for recess and outdoor play.
