Reading and Remembrance 2012

1812-2012, History Matters
This year’s theme for Reading and Remembrance covers 200 years of Canadian history, thanks to the War of 1812-14, its inspiration. Although the lessons tie days of yore to today’s media-savvy youth, we’ve not forgotten our current veterans. They’ll be canvased on their perspective of why, “History Matters”.
