Recipient Biography
As an Early Childhood Care and Education student, Elma believes that quality education of young minds will lay a strong foundation for their future, as well as society's. She is thankful
for this award and the opportunity to gain excellent knowledge at VCC.
Dear Asgar and Shahin Virji,
I would like to express my sincere gratitude for the recognition and support you have provided me through this award. What a surprise!
ECCE is providing me with a deeper purpose in my life, to expand my knowledge and 25- year career as an actress, into something more meaningful that can contribute to society as a whole.
Children are facing a challenging world today and I believe they need a solid foundation to prepare them to become resilient, curious, competent and kind. With the positive influence and caring relationships with educators, they might be able to grow up to be happy and confident adults. I will strive to continue developing my own skills and knowledge to provide quality education to others. I admire and appreciate your dedication to supporting students - I know for a fact that this award will help me financially, but also inspire me to be better every day. I wish you the best for all your future endeavours.
Kind regards,
Elma
