A huge thank you to the London Fire Department and the incredible Firefighters from Truck No. 1 and Engine No. 1 for visiting our Afterschool Program today!

Our participants had an amazing time exploring the fire trucks, learning about all the tools and equipment, and asking lots of great questions. We even got to see one of the firefighters suit up in full gear!

Yesterday we decided to try something new!

📚Reading Buddies 📖

Children 9 and up were partnered with our JK/SK group to sit and read together. It was wonderful to see our participants kindness and care as they let their buddies pick out books and read together.
