This year, we had a total of around 1400 students from 25 schools of 9 school districts attending the Student Symposium. Windermere Secondary hosted this event for the first time and there were many new workshop presenters. We have received much positive and encouraging feedback from both students and teachers. Please watch this video to hear what students say about this event at the commemoration of the 70th anniversary of the end of WWII:
