Happy New Year! We will be much better in 2021!!!

My hope for the future of Canada is that of a world where love always wins.

I am grateful for my family, our health, and how we have grown closer over the past ten months.

I would like to share what I want the future to bring. I want the future to be beautiful and happy, with people being kind to each other and full of food and clean water. I also want no more pollution in the oceans and waters, and everyone lived happy and satisfied. This is what I am wanting the future to bring . By Jessie

I am going to tell you about my favourite quarantine moment. Around the end of July, my cousin came down from Grande Prairie for a week. On the fifth day; me, my cousin Hayden, my auntie Trina, and my mom, went to Kelowna to go to the mall. We left at 1pm and made sure we had extra masks and sanitizer. Once we got there, we split up. Our moms went together, and me and my cousin went together. We started at American Eagle and worked our way around the mall. We mostly just went to clothing stores. We went to some non-clothing stores and found our mommy’s. All four of us had spent all our cash. After we packed everything up in the car, we stopped at a Boston Pizza for supper. We listened to 80’s music on the way home then did a fashion show for the boys. That day was by far the best during quarantine. I did not worry about COVID-19 once.

I would like to share my favorite Quarantine moment. For me the most exiting thing that happened during quarantine has to be the time when online school ended, and summer break finally came. Personally, for me it was just so much harder than normal school and I hated it so much. That’s why I was as exited as heck when it ended. Sincerely, Carter

I would like to tell you a few things I am thankful for. For starters, I want to thank my parents. I am very thankful for my parents because they put food on the table, a roof over my head, and they buy, and clean, my clothes. Next, I want to thank my friends. I want to thank my friends because they are always there for me when I need them, and they support me no matter what. Lastly, I want to thank all the support and health care workers for keeping us safe during this pandemic. I would also like to thank all the scientists for trying to come up with a cure for COVID-19 as soon as they can. I have way more things I am thankful for but I am sure you are getting bored already so I will leave it at my top three things. Stay happy, healthy, and most importantly, stay safe. Sincerely, Kyah De Mitri, Summerland, BC

Dear Canadians, I would like to share a moment from the COVID-19 Quarantine time, an exciting moment is me having my little brother’s birthday party. He was turning 4, his birthday is November 24 and the one toy he was most excited for was his cement truck that had three sets of two wheels. We called are grandparents on Facetime so they could see him open his presents. He got a cement truck, tool table, car carrier truck and a couple books. He had lots of fun, so did the people there. Even though his birthday was affected by COVID-19 we made the best of it. Sincerely, Dayton Koldyk Summerland British Columbia.
