Remembrance Day is important to me because it’s a time to think about the sacrifices people made in the past to protect our freedom. It reminds us how much was given up so we can live the way we do today. I think Remembrance Day is still important for young people because it helps us understand the value of peace and the real cost of war. It reminds us that our freedom came at the expense of real lives, and it encourages us to be grateful and to learn from the past so we can make better choices for the future. Ashneet Arora [12D]

To me, Remembrance Day is about showing respect for those who sacrificed everything for future generations. It’s an important moment to honour their courage and reflect on what it must have taken to stand up for what was right. For young people today, it serves as a powerful reminder that we can continue their legacy by being more understanding, standing up for those who need support, and working towards a more peaceful world.
