Children from a Hornsby childcare centre have made cards and written letters of thanks to their local healthcare workers to show them how much they appreciate their efforts during the pandemic. 

Staff from Hornsby Ku-ring-gai Hospital collected the art work which was delivered by Guardian Early Childhood Education Hornsby.

The centre has been teaching children about COVID-19 and what hospital staff have been doing to protect the community.

Hornsby Hospital’s Patient Representative Mikhaila O’Brien said the children made cards and art work which will be placed on display around the hospital.

“The pandemic has been a relatable experience even to very young children,” she said.
