“What an awesome day in Victoria for Tulani Ackerman….43 days…3000 km….42 communities…connecting with hundreds of people. Tulani has completed a courageous journey to bring an awareness to concerns and issues that are plaguing our education system”
I am so proud of Tulani….she is a person who definately “walks the walk”. I was honored to be with her at the beginning of her trip and thrilled to join her at the end of her long and strenuous journey. Lana Popham(MLA Saanich South), Tulani’s father, my daughter Breton and myself all met Tulani to ride the final 22 km with her to the legistlature in Victoria. She was graciously met by dozens of friends, family and supporters of her cause.
Education is so critical to society. If we don’t work together, develop strategies and ensure that funding is properly allocated, our children will essential suffer in the long run. Too many students fall through the cracks from not having their needs met and from not recieving the proper support.
I look forward to hearing the concerns that were brought forth throughout the province regarding our public education system in Tulani’s final report! Good job Tulani and supporters!
