During the Covid-19 pandemic many thousands of teachers across Canada have pivoted to implement A NEW extensive online digital REMOTE LEARNING PLATFORM that provides an alternative, safe innovation of “in class” teaching.

In response to the new demand for at home (on-line) learning, Thomega Entertainment is proud to announce that the Canada Remembers Commemorative School Project will be providing an ‘on line digital version’ of its educational Learning Plan consisting of the original six 47-minute documentaries and 86-page compatible learning plan. This option will now be available to schools and educators from coast to coast!

With endorsement from The Royal Canadian Legion Dominion Command Poppy and Remembrance Committee, we encourage all Legion Branches to assist schools in your individual regions by purchasing this critical learning system developed by teachers … for teachers.

Pricing remains unchanged since 2016 with each complete educational package set at $349.00 plus applicable taxes. The recipient school(s) that any Legion Branch might choose to help by purchasing this educational program on their behalf, will receive “life time rights” to utilize the on line learning program for students … forever!
