On a recent trip to Shetland, Finlay Mackenzie who works for Blythswood care gave a talk to Primary pupils about the shoebox appeal. Shoeboxes are filled with gifts like shampoo, socks, a notepad, small toy and then delivered to someone in need. They are distributed to Albania, Bulgaria, Hungary, Kosovo, Moldova, Pakistan, Romania, Serbia and Ukraine. If you would like to fill a shoebox for someone this Christmas you can take it to the school office which is our local collecting point – last collection day Monday 30th October.
