Day of Charitable Fundraising – Thursday 13th October

Missio Scotland
To continue to raise awareness of the fabulous work of Missio Scotland we will have a ‘Crazy Hair Day’ on Thursday 13th October.  During the day pupils will take part in lessons focused on faith and fundraising.  Pupils are invited to come to school with ‘crazy hair’ and class teachers will speak to them about children around the world who need their help and prayers.  Why not follow up this day by praying the mission rosary as a family?  http://missio.scot/school-resources-2/mission-rosary-resources/

Show Racism the Red Card
We will also be taking part in Show Racism the Red Card ‘Wear Red Day’ on the same day Thursday 13th October.  This is to celebrate the 20 year anniversary of the Charity.  Pupils will take part in activities in class to learn how to fight racism.  Pupils are encouraged to wear an item of red clothing to demonstrate their stance against racism.

Please note this day should be awareness raising and fundraising.  We do not want parents to go to any expense in buying outfits etc.  Pupils can either have crazy hair or wear something red or just wear their own clothes or do all three if they choose.  All we ask is that each pupil brings in a donation which will be split between the two charities.
