Making Remembrance Day Meaningful
The schools of 2025 are much different from those of 1919, when the first formal Armistice Day was marked in Canada; yet the way in which we commemorate it is largely unchanged. The Remembrance Day Challenge Kit gives students in Grades 5-12 the opportunity to develop deeper understandings of what Remembrance Day can be. In this Challenge Kit we ask students to expand the stories they consider, deepen their understanding of war, conflict and peace, and ensure historical accuracy. Students reimagine how we honour all who served and continue to serve in the Canadian Armed Forces, including Black, Indigenous, women, 2SLBGTQ+ soldiers, veterans and labourers, often forgotten and excluded in traditional remembrance. Remembrance Day is an important opportunity to engage with student voice and action.
Students’ guiding challenge is: How might we make Remembrance Day meaningful to our school community?
