Overview

Attendees will commemorate the lives of those who have given their lives in the service of our country. 

The ceremony will be followed by refreshments and fellowship.

We invite the Headingley community to honour Canada's soldiers with us. 

The First World War ended on November 11, 1918 at 11 a.m. We will honour this moment in history with 2 minutes of silence at 11 a.m. on November 11, 2024, thinking about the contributions of all who have served our country in wars and conflicts since that time, their sacrifices on our behalf, and how we might strive for a more peaceful world.

The minutes of silence will be followed by “The Last Post” and laying of wreaths.

Presentations and readings will complete our ceremony.
