•The auditorium at Northlea Elementary and Middle School rang with cheers and applause this morning (Friday, December 13, 2013) to thank and congratulate crossing guard Jake Apacible (centre above). Jake is the diminutive but powerfully caring and conscientious guard who for more than ten years has been shepherding Northlea kids safely across the street. The occasion was Jake’s winning of the “Canada’s Favourite Crossing Guard” contest sponsored by Parachute and FedEx Canada. More on that in this previous post Today Jake was first thanked personally by school and police officials (above he is seen with Trustee Gerri Gershon and PC Wai Lau, the 53 Division School Crossing Guard Coordinator). Then it was on to the auditorium where assembled Grade 3 and 4 classes gave Jake a heart warming reception (pictures inset). It was nice for Jake for sure but also a useful lesson for the children about the importance of ordinary people.
