On Thursday September 24, many members of the Miramich Police Force and Grade 5 students from Gretna Green gathered together to celebrate the life of "Koala" the beloved Police Canine who passed away earlier this year. The Miramichi Police Department planted a tree on the grounds of Gretna Green in memory of Koala. The Grade 5 students at Gretna Green Elementary have agreed to take good care of the tree. As well, a plaque with a picture of Koala hangs proudly in the entrance of Gretna Green Elementary. The students at Gretna Green were very honored to be given the responsiblity of looking after the memorial tree.
