Thank a First Responder Day

This month, the wellbeing team dedicated time to express our heartfelt gratitude to the first responders in our community. June 12th, known as Thank a First Responder Day, is a national day of appreciation recognising the incredible dedication and bravery of first responders and their families.

In honour of this day, each class took part in creating thank you cards. The students poured their creativity and appreciation into these cards, decorating them with beautiful, thankful messages. We are proud to share that we sent out 21 thank you cards, each one a small token of our immense gratitude for the individuals who put their lives on the line to keep our community safe.

In celebration of Thanking a First Responder Day on June 12th, 2024, we want to highlight the invaluable contributions of our local heroes. From paramedics, firefighters to police officers and other emergency personnel, our first responders are the backbone of our community's safety infrastructure. They are always ready to respond in times of crisis, often putting their own lives at risk to protect and serve others.

By crafting and sending these cards, we aim to convey our sincere thanks and admiration for the unwavering commitment and courage displayed by our first responders. We believe it is important for our students to understand and appreciate the efforts of those who work tirelessly to ensure our safety.

Additionally, if you would like to learn more about the vital role of first responders, Ms. Lister has curated a selection of books available in the library. These books provide valuable insights into the lives and contributions of these remarkable individuals.
