A young Noosa boy who dreams of one day joining the police service has met his heroes.
Charlie McEvoy visited Noosa Police station last week with his mother Katie to invite officers to attend his sixth birthday party, and he was given a tour of the station.
A few days later on Saturday 10 January, Charlie's wish came true when Senior Constable Joel Schoenberger and Constable Alex Browne pulled up to his party in their patrol car.
"They let him sit in it, it was such a lovely morning," Katie said. "We are really grateful."
The party decorations and even the cake were all police themed.
The constable and senior constable also brought Charlie a gift, a custom vest made up with a badge for Special Constable Charlie.
"Santa gave him a junior police uniform for Christmas this year and we've had a hard time taking it off to wash it," Katie said. "The vest now barely comes off too."
"It was fantastic being able to make Charlie's birthday a little bit more special," Constable Browne said.
Katie said it was one of the best days of Charlie's life. "He was so excited, he's told everyone. It always comes up in other conversations. Even if we're walking the dog, he tells other dog walkers about his police party."
