Today we had a big breakfast in our classroom.

The reason we had this big breakfast is because we are raising money for the STV appeal to help children in poverty.

Our breakfast included a wide selection of fruit, a choice of cereal and milk, and rolls filled with potato scones. Thank you so much to the community partners who donated food to us.

From the STV Big Breakfast Appeal website, we have been learning about poverty in Scotland and we found out that 220,000 people live in poverty and often have to choose between heating their homes or eating. The appeal has been in existence since 2011 and have helped to raise £19 million for children all over Scotland.

We also participated in a Plickers quiz to test our knowledge of the appeal and the importance of breakfast.

If you would like to give a donation, there is still time to give to the appeal via ParentPay.
