Many schools in Sylvan Lake celebrated their Remembrance Day ceremonies on Wednesday morning.

Students gathered to remember the sacrifices of their fore fathers while also hearing a number of heritage stories from fellow students and special guest speakers.

A number of poems and songs were sung including a riveting performance of ‘Flander’s Field’ by the H.J. Cody Choir.

Remembrance Day ceremonies for members of the community to attend in Sylvan Lake will take place at the NexSource Centre for the Remembrance Day Community Service on Nov. 11 at 10:30 a.m. with lunch at the Sylvan Lake Legion to take place at 12 p.m. and a service to be held at 2 p.m. at the Cenotaph in Memorial Park behind the Legion.
