Seven-year-old Eli Griffith, diagnosed with ADHD, had the chance of a lifetime to live out his dream of becoming a police officer for a day. On career day at Marabella Government Primary School, Eli proudly donned a police uniform, a gift from his doting grandmother Debbie Peters.
The sight of Eli in the blue vest with the word “police” emblazoned on the front, a grey sweater, black pants, beanie, handcuffs, and badge wasn’t just a playful costume—it was a boost to his self-esteem and a moment of joy that made him feel seen, motivated, and special.
For Eli, that day marked more than just a role; it was a step towards realising his dreams.
