Caritas Award Coffee Morning

Sixth year students Aidan Spiers and Emily McGuinness have been very busy working on their Caritas Award.  The students recently volunteered to help at this annual Social Event for the older members of their parish and are now in the process of  arranging a coffee morning for later next Month.   Both students are undertaking thier award as part of St. Teresa’s Parish in Newarthill.  The students were inspired by the work of female staff in the school who last year donated almost 200 pairs of pants to be sent Mzimba in Northern Malawi after hearing of the plight of local women. The students recently heard that the community of Mzimba are raising funds to be sent to the community to try and help them build, and furnish,  a community room for pre-school children in the village and so Aidan and Emily offered to try and help.  The coffee morning will be held on Sunday 23rd March in the church  hall following the 11am Mass. Aidan and Emily are looking for donations of homebaking, on the day, and any raffle prizes. These can be handed in to the school office any time.
