🧡 Every Child Matters 🧡
Today, as we recognize National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, we invite all childcare centres and educators across our community to take a moment to reflect, remember, and learn.
As early childhood educators, we have the unique opportunity to help shape a generation that understands the importance of kindness, respect, inclusion, and belonging. Our work with young children can help create environments where every child feels safe, valued, heard, and accepted.
Every Child Matters.
Today is an opportunity to honour the children and families who have been impacted by the history of residential schools, to recognize the importance of Indigenous cultures and voices, and to continue learning about what reconciliation means in our communities.
We encourage each centre to find age-appropriate ways to recognize this day and to create meaningful opportunities for children and educators to learn, reflect, and build understanding.
🧡 We remember.
🧡 We listen.
🧡 We learn.
🧡 We honour.
🧡 We move forward together.
From all of us at SFEL, thank you for the important work you do each day to create spaces where **every child matters.
