Tuesday, October 21, 2025, marks the 25th anniversary of Child Care Worker and Early Childhood Educator Appreciation Day!
Join us as we celebrate a quarter century of recognizing the heart, dedication, and incredible impact of Early Years Professionals in our community.
Whether you’ve attended every year or are joining us for the first time, we invite you to drop in between 6:00 - 8:00 PM to enjoy lively conversation, and a chance to unwind and connect with fellow educators.
During this evening for educators, we will be providing an opportunity for professional photos/headshots to be done, and we are also happy to have Old South Pub catering!
There will also be door prizes and giveaways as an extra special “thank you” for all that you do.
Let’s come together to honour the past, celebrate the present, and look ahead to the future of early years care and education.
Pedagogical Focuses: Belonging - Engagement - Expression - Well Being - Networking
Standards of Practice: Standard I: Caring and Responsive Relationships
The Strive Team is a collaborative group of early years professionals dedicated to supporting learning and growth to elevate effective practice.
Though we each have unique roles within the team, everyone at Strive works collaboratively to deliver thoughtful, intentional professional learning and services to London, Middlesex, Elgin, and Oxford county.
