Across Delta School District students and staff participated in special ceremonies of remembrance on Wednesday, November 10, 2010. New connections were forged to those sacrifices of past Canadians that ensure that our generation can live freely and with prosperity. Students were reminded of the commitment that grandparents, great-grandparents and other members of our community made to our nation.
