Message from Ms. Leisen

Dear Grade Six,

I wanted to tell you how moved I was by your Remembrance Day assembly. I honestly can't remember one even coming close to this. Your speaking was so impressive, so mature and each of you had me spellbound. It was obvious that you spent an enormous amount of time and attention to detail, and it showed. I loved the imagery on the screen and was captivated by your focus and commitment to excellence. Your personal stories made it so much more meaningful. Your work and performance was such a tribute to not only those who have died defending us, (my uncle being one) but to those who are still defending ours and other's freedoms today. Be proud. You were outstanding.

Ms. Leisen
