Recognition of Early Childhood Educator Appreciation Day

Mayor Elmslie recognized that Early Childhood Educator Appreciation Day is October 24, 2024. It is a day to recognize the important work of Early Childhood Educators (ECE’s) and others who are committed to providing quality care for young children. Our children are the future, and ECE’s are vital to ensuring children in their care receive critical educational programs to thrive during this foundational time in their life. On behalf of Council, I would like to thank our Children’s Services staff who support ECE’s across the City and to thank all ECE’s for their commitment and care they take with our children. 

Mayor Elmslie also recognized that the lights at City Hall will be changed to purple on October 25th to honour Dress Purple Day. This is a day to raise awareness of child welfare and the supports provided by the Kawartha-Haliburton Children’s Aid Society. Dress Purple Day is a province-wide campaign to spread the message that every child has a right to safety and well-being, and that there is help available to all youth who need it. On October 25th all members of the community are encouraged to dress purple to show our collective commitment to support community-based care for families and children.
