Supporting Syria

 

Supporting Syria

Tomorrow is “Wear your Trainers” to school day. This is being held to raise awareness of the dreadful events happening in Syria. Any money raised is being sent off to the “Save the Children” charity. The Pastoral Council are keen to support their peers in identifying the rights and responsibilities of children and have recognised that in Syria children’s rights are not being received. They hope that the donation will help to deliver some of these rights to needy children.

The Scottish Catholic Education service has asked us to highlight this event to parents.

Some weeks ago I advised you of the first Catholic Assembly of Parents being held on Saturday 25th August in the Xavier Centre, Carfin Grotto, Lanarkshire starting at 2pm and ending with Vigil Mass at 5.30pm.   A working group established by the Catholic Education Commission is organising this event and they are keen to ensure that all Parent Councils are advised of it and encouraged to send representatives.

Please advise parents that  details of the event can be found on the SCES website, together with a poster, leaflet and a registration form which must be submitted by 15th June.  Use this link: http://sces.org.uk/news/2012/05/12/parents—becoming-first-and-best-teachers-.html

Many thanks,
