Primary 4/3 are super excited to be leading this year’s Harvest Food Bank Donation appeal.  This is a local community charity organisation and Barsail have been supporting them for a few years now.

Amanda from Erskine Baptist Church, where the local food bank is located, came to visit P4/3 on Monday.  She helped inform the class of the need for food banks and how we can help them.

We are looking to our whole school to get involved and help us support this very worthy cause.  Today the pupils in P4/3 went to each class and informed them of our plan.  They all did extremely well in delivering their information without any help from Mrs Kellett!

We need your help!  We are looking for tins, jars, packets and boxes of food e.g. rice, pasta, cereal, soup, biscuits, etc.  It is important that they have a best before date as far away as possible.  All items also have to be unopened and unused.  We cannot take any fresh food or things that will go out of date quickly like fresh fruit, milk, bread, meat, etc.

We are looking for any donations to be brought into school on Thursday 12th October.  We will be having a special Harvest Assembly that morning.  Amanda will be coming along and we will be able to present her with our collection of food.

We really appreciate everyone’s support with this very worthy cause and we would like to thank you all in advance for doing so. 😊
