Wednesday morning was special and a memory maker. What a thrill to see the back basketball court brimming with dads, grandpas, significant adults, staff, and kids.
From sunshine, a fire pit, a coffee van and endless egg and bacon rolls; to handshakes, conversations and new friends made; to handball challenges and paper plane making; to thinking about the importance and privilege of fatherhood, the morning was rich in all the best ways.
A particular thank you to one of our school Dads, Nate Bennett who shared generously and honestly of his journey as a dad and the importance of connection with our children. Nate also reminded us of the example and care we have in God, our Heavenly Father. What security He brings to every journey; fatherhood included.
And special mention goes to Dennis, Braeden and Ruby-Anne Apps who made a paper plane that soared an impressive 25m. They are the winners of the inaugural HCS Father’s Day Paper Plane Competition and first names on the perpetual trophy.
Thank you to all who took time to come to our Father's Day Breakfast. What wonderful community we have at Heritage.
