Daniel Blom is a very special child from the Emmanuel Children's Home. Daniel wants to become a policeman someday and Bertus thought it would be a positive experience to let him spend a day at the local police station in Middelberg to help him make this dream feel real.
Daniel got to spend some time with the dog unit and see the dogs in training. He also had the chance to sit in the Commissioner's chair at his desk "talking" on his phone. Daniel reported early on duty with Anzelle van Aarde to accompany him and was welcomed by Inspector Liz McEwan.
Daniel got to witness the parade done by the student constables and he loved it very much. Daniel was also taken to the forensics department and experienced having his finger and foot prints taken which he could keep as a souvenir. Daniel signed a special document "swearing him in" as a citizen helping to prevent crime. He took lots of presents back to the home to remind him of this special day as well as the pictures and stories which were reported in the local newspaper, the Middelburg Courant. Ever since, when a police car drive past the house Daniel runs to the window to see who is going pasr. He is very proud of what he did and we all are of him.
