Some of our elementary students wearing red on
Friday's in support of our troops a in Afghanistan. |
Computers are a wonderful invention. Our
students were very fortunate to have the pictures and presentation. |

Social studies lessons become more real through a
first hand resource person.. |

On Monday Oct. 1st, one of our Canadian
Soldiers, a former
student of Eaglesham School visited and gave a presentation to our junior
high and senior high students about experiences as a front line
soldier in Afghanistan. Shared were several stories about life as a
soldier and some of the harsh conditions that soldiers and the Afghan
people are facing. |

|
Staff were able to talk a little more
privately after school about jobs and experiences as a soldier. |

The explanation of the roll Canada has in the
Afghanistan conflict was very clear to the students. |
Our support for our former student and the Canadian troops is heart
felt. We think and wonder about this war more often now. |
Wearing red on Friday's is only a small
gesture to show our support, however it comes from deep in our
heart. |
