Reminder Team Hope Christmas Shoebox Appeal
Dear Parents and Guardians,
We have extended the deadline to Monday morning ( November 13th)
Many thanks for the boxes that were sent in over the last few weeks.
This year our school will be taking part in Team Hope’s Christmas Shoebox Appeal. The organisation provides a service in which children all around the world get to experience the joys of Christmas.
To get involved all you have to do is find an empty shoebox, wrap it in Christmas paper and fill it with gifts for a boy or girl aged between 2 and 14, attach a €5 donation and bring it to school before the deadline of Friday 10th November. A flyer will be given to each student during their religion classes this week or students can collect a flyer from Mr Warren.
When considering items that are best to gift, think of the 4 Ws:
-
Wear – Gloves, Hat, Scarf, Socks, Top, Underwear
-
Wash – Comb, Soap, Sponge, Toothbrush & Toothpaste, Washcloth
-
Write – Colouring Pencils, Notepad, Writing accessories
-
Wow – Fun Trinkets, Musical Toys, Puzzles, Soft toy, Ball, fun Sunglasses
Kind regards,
Mr Warren
