🚣If you're looking for something short but insightful, Rachel has a great book recommendation for you!

⛵"'Small Boat' by French philosopher Vincent Delecroix is a challenging literary novella based on the true story of a migrant boat disaster in the English Channel in November 2021. The narrative draws us into the interrogation of the rescue operator who fielded the calls for help that night. Asking profound questions about responsibility, accountability, and empathy on a personal and global scale, this novel clearly earned its place on the Booker Prize shortlist."

📣The Town of Strathmore and Strathmore FCSS invite you to celebrate National Indigenous Peoples Day on June 21 from 1pm to 4pm at Kinsmen Park!
