Children across Southport are being asked to create a very special ‘thank you’ card for your favourite teachers!
Thousands of children of all ages have been doing their bit to Stay Home Save Lives and keep everyone safe from coronavirus by isolating along with their families since Sefton’s schools partially closed last month.
For many, life has been difficult, with youngsters missing teachers, school staff and friends.
So now they are being asked to create their own special card.
A Sefton Council spokesman said: “Here in Sefton we know that our teachers are doing an amazing job in continuing to work in schools across the borough, teaching vulnerable children and children of key workers.

“All teachers play a massive role in our children’s educational and emotional development and of course, many young people who are at home may now be missing them dearly.
“So, to let them know how much we are missing them and to show we appreciate what they are doing, we’re asking your children to make a ‘Thank you’ card for their favourite teacher/s, remembering to include a special message.
“Be it a painting or drawing, when it’s finished simply take a photo and share it with us.
“You can email your picture to communications@sefton.gov.uk. You can also use our social media channels to share with us remembering to tag us, Facebook/ Sefton Council, Twitter/@seftoncouncil, Instagram/@sefton_council
“When sharing via Social Media, please also use the hashtag #SeftonSaysThanks which will make sure we don’t miss any of your masterpieces!
“Don’t forget to include your child’s name, the teacher’s name & what school they teach at so we can make sure your school and teachers will see them.”
