Remembrance Day

Every year since 1919, LCC has continued a tradition of honouring our war veterans and recognizing former students who died in military service. Between the two world wars and the Korean War, LCC counts 76 fallen soldiers, airmen and seamen among its alumni, and there were countless more who served. LCC students, faculty, staff and guests gather at Remembrance Day assemblies to pay tribute to all who have served over the years and to reflect on their sacrifices. Fittingly, the assemblies take place in the Memorial Gym, built in 1921 to honour our fallen.
