Tales of Animals in War - 2024

Hi everyone! The Remembrance Club animals are very excited. We are working up a sweat in the gym. The Invictus Games have inspired us to play sports. The Games are amazing! Injured Veterans and military members compete in cool sports. It’s awesome to see how they overcome challenges and never give up.

Canada looks forward to welcoming the world for the Invictus Games in February 2025. When we heard this exciting news, we wanted to support them and show our appreciation. We decided to form a basketball team in honour of Team Canada. We don’t like to brag but we are pretty good!

We are going to get some exercise and have fun. But we will also learn from each other. At half time, we are going to talk about some important things. We will learn about Veterans, remembrance, war, peace, the military, memorials and lots more.

After reading this newspaper, you may want to do something special too. Hey! You could organize a remembrance and recognition sports tournament in your own school. Now, keep your eye on the ball and let’s get going!
