We always sang O Canada at assemblies all through elementary school, but when I was in grades one and two (had the same teacher), we would sing it every morning. I'm not sure why my teacher had us sing it every morning because we were the only class in the school that did.
The teacher also had us say the Lord's prayer, which I didn't think much of at the time because I'm Catholic and I was only, what, 7? Looking back though, I'm not sure why the teacher had us say it in a public school. Nobody was forced to say it, but it still seems strange looking back now.
