The generous pupils at St. Joseph’s managed to raise £330 for their nominated Lenten charity SCIAF this week. Staff bought prizes for a children’s raffle with all proceeds intended for a charity close to the hearts of the whole school family: The Scottish Catholic International Aid Fund. With the government’s pledge to double any donations to SCIAF before May 2015, these funds are now guaranteed to mean a £660 donation for the charity.
The children had a wonderful time waiting to see if their number came up. A good time was had by all for a very good cause!
Well done to you all.
There was great excitement on the day of the raffle! A very worthy cause. Well done to everyone who bought tickets and donated prizes!
