Heritage Elementary School students were very charitable this week.
Josh Dueck was supposed to attend Winterfest with Mike Shaw for a sit ski demonstration, however his father passed away and he was unable to attend.
Classes from Heritage elementary joined the World Para Nordic Skiing Championships at Otway Nordic Centre earlier this week and had a chilly but wonderful time at the event.
The students felt such empathy for Josh’s loss that they took up a collection and raised $175 to donate to a charity of Josh’s choice in his father’s name.
