Campagne des coquelicots blancs

White poppy campaign 

From November 11 to 18, 2012, the members of the Congregation were invited to wear a white poppy in remembrance of all victims of war. The first white poppy campaign took place in England in 1933, launched by the Co-operative Women’s Guild (CWG), an organization made up of mothers, wives and fiancées of men killed in the First World War. 

The model for the whilte poppy came to us from Haiti.

SISTERS OF SAINT ANNE HISTORIC CENTRE: EXHIBITS

Centre historique

“Anne Frank, A History for Today”

The Historic Centre hosted a travelling exhibit mounted by Amsterdam’s Anne Frank House from January 16 to February 22, 2013. The exhibit was a great success; guided tours were given to no fewer than 2,000 elementary and high-school students by the 30 student guides from Collège Sainte-Anne. Other interested groups and individual visitors also responded to the invitation. All were impressed by the work the students had accomplished. The travelling exhibit is continuing its tour of Quebec schools.
