The Second World War Series - Canadian Youth - Keeping Veterans’ Memories Alive
As part of their efforts to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the end of the Second World War, Orillia Secondary School organized A Walk to Remember, where dozens of students participated in one-kilometer walks throughout their neighborhoods to commemorate the anniversary.
The episode puts a focus on youth involvement within commemoration, and includes interviews with the teacher responsible for spearheading the initiative, Ms. Leanne Young, as well as three students who participated.
