Today at Assembly two representatives from the Children’s Council from P7 spoke about the Mary’s Meals Back Pack initiative which P6 and P7 are leading, as part of the Pope Francis Faith Awards.

Pupils were shown an example of a back pack and told about the items to put in it. Mrs Carroll will distribute information leaflets to all classes next week and this initiative will run until the end of April, so you have plenty of time to participate.

This was a very successful initiative a few years ago at St Patrick’s with 98 back packs being sent to support children in Malawi. I am sure that everyone will support this very worthwhile venture.
