In October our class made "Postcards for Peace." We sent them to Afghanistan to send our appreciation to our Canadian Armed Forces. If you want to see the post about our postcards, click here.
Today we received an email response from Frederic. Our Kindergarten class truly appreciates the time Frederic took to respond. It made my day!
Mrs Jackson
Thank you to you and your class for sending the postcards. They
were very very well done. I enjoyed them very much, and was
impressed with all the stars, hearts and smiley faces drawn on hearts. I
wanted to take the time to respond, as your students put the effort forward in
putting them together.
It
is very appreciative to see that remembrance day still has meaning even as the
World Wars become distance memories. I have three young boys at home
under the age of 7 years, so when I read the cards, it brought thoughts of
home. Although I have served for the last 21 years, I do so out of
pride. Having served in Afghanistan (twice) Bosnia (twice) and
Kosovo.
I have read every single card that your students sent, and can honestly
say that I was very moved and impressed.
