This is our work today we are creating interview Questions about our upcoming events

 

This morning the community partnership pupil group have been discussing what we should make for a bake sale. Lemonade, cookies, shortbread, chocolate brownies, fruity muffins, mini apple pies and blondies. We are doing our bake sale in our school and handing out flyers to nearby stores. If the weathers nice we’ll be doing it outside if the weather’s bad we’ll do it in the gym hall. We are hoping to have parents coming in and buying our products. All the money we have raised will go towards the Give a Dog a Bone charity.

Today in the Community Partnership Pupil group we started adding our finishing touches to our foodbank charity posters. Then we all scattered around about the school to share them with everyone.

Here are some pictures of our awesome finished posters!

AM also made an advertisement on the ipad to be shared at the school assembly to make sure that everyone was aware of where to find the foodbank box and what can be donated.

Then we took our pupil group photo!

Finally, we planned the questions which we would like to ask the visitors from the Give a Dog a Bone charity when they come to visit us. Some examples of our questions are;

1. How long have you worked for the charity for?
2. Why did the charity start?
3. What kinds of dogs do you support the elderly to rescue?
4. Do you have any of your own pets?
5. What do you need help with?
6. Do you have any support from other companies or schools?
7. How do you help people to get a dog?

 

 

This week community partnership have  been focused on finishing our posters for the foodbank donations. We have been colouring  and adding lots more detail to our posters. Here are some pictures of our amazing posters.

 

Today we started making posters to raise awareness of the food bank. We also started looking at the charity [Give a dog a bone and an animal a home] and what the charity does. Then we started thinking what makes a good poster and where to place them around the school. Here some of the quotes from the posters.

Quotes

• If you donate food to people, it will help a lot of people
• Its Useful for dog because they can get a new home
• The old people will feel less lonely
• Stops old people from feeling lonely and remembering hard times

 

 

Today we started writing letters to  get  in touch with a charity. We took a vote and SSPCA won.

We discussed what we should ask them in the letter and what we can  offer (blankets, pillows, food etc. )

Then, we discussed  what makes a good letter.

After that, we started writing them.

Today we discussed some stuff that last year the p5s had did for charity. They had done a fun run to raise money and they had donated so many clothes and food  to different charities.

After this we discussed new stuff we want to like lemonade stand, hot chocolate, make drawings for care homes, car washes, go to hospital and give them blankets, helping animal shelters, fun cycle (we would use the money for cancer patients), donate toys to nurseries, cleaning dishes for staff and so on.

We decided to take a vote for which idea to go with, it was a very hard choice. visiting the care home and Christmas cards got 12 votes. Give homeless people clothes/blankets got 13 votes. Go to hospitals and give them second hand blankets got 23 votes, we wanted to go to a children hospital and give gifts such as books(in good condition) or toys.

We have filled out our action plan with out final ideas.
