I'm in awe of Queen Mel @the_mulc for always leading by example as the ultimate risk-taker. She and her co-host aka Master Charmer @tbydaniel were sensational in Peel's first virtual Forest of Reading Celebration. Congratulations on an amazing 4 days @PDSB_Libraries @PeelSchools

Today was a great day! I love my family at @EarnscliffeSPS. There aren’t enough words to express how supportive everyone has been during these difficult times. The PD sessions, the weekly catch ups, the sharing of resources and so much more. I’m truly proud to be an eagle 🦅
