A Year of Important Anniversaries

Allan Hardy, Principal
At our first assembly of the New Year, I pointed out to students that 2017 marks the anniversary of a number of important historical and cultural events.
1867: Three British colonies join together to create Canada

1917: The Russian Revolution takes place

1967:
  • Israel is victorious in the six-day war with Egypt, Syria and Jordan
  • The first human heart transplant takes place in Cape Town
  • The Beatles release the album Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Heart Club Band
  • The Toronto Maple Leafs win the Stanley Cup
2002: Greenwood College School opens its doors

2007: Apple releases the iPhone

I pointed out to students how it is interesting to see that many of these events continue to influence events in today’s world and that having a sense of history matters.
