A Charming Letter From Pierce
Posted on
We received this letter from Grade 4 student, Pierce Gerritsen, and were reminded of all that is good in the world and in our schools. It is heartwarming to see kids helping kids and young people who want to make a difference in their community. A shout out to teachers and parents who nurture this giving spirit. What a fantastic way to start YANA Week in the Schools!
