Remembrance Day Assembly & Performance
Students in Grades 3-6 along with Mr. Symington have been developing the
play A Thousand Cranes. It is a true and poignant story of Sadako Saski,
who was 2 years old when the atomic bomb was dropped on the small city of
Hiroshima, where she lived. Sadako, now 12 years old, is an excellent athlete
who races daily with her friend Kenji to prepare for an important competition.
However, one day while running, Sadako gets dizzy and falls. She is
hospitalized, and it is discovered that she has "radiation sickness,"
or leukemia—an effect of the bombing that happened 10 years before, during
which her grandmother was killed.
The overall message that the students are trying to convey is of
strength, hope and peace for the world. We welcome you to come view this
performance on Friday November 8th at 10:00
AM in the Gymnasium.
