Every year, Crestwood students are encouraged to submit their creative writing, poetry and artistic works to the Royal Canadian Legion’s Remembrance Day contest. This contest allows students to use their creative abilities to honour and commemorate the sacrifice made by members of Canada’s armed forces in military conflicts throughout our nation’s history. This year, many students were recognized by our local Legion branch for their creative and artistic works, and earned special commendation (and a cash prize) for their creations.
