Shoebox Appeal

This year after receiving a presentation at the correct level for the children all about the shoebox appeal, what it does and where it goes, the pupil council took a unanimous decision in taking part in this appeal. They sent out letters to each family and have taken on the responsibility of wrapping, sorting through all the items and filling the boxes. Primary 7 have done a fantastic job of supporting the younger children in doing so.

We have outdone ourselves this year as we have managed to wrap and fill an amazing……41 boxes!! There are a mixture of boxes for babies all the way up to elderly women.

We would like to say a huge thank you to anyone who has donated items to help us with this very worthy cause!

Shoebox Appeal

We would like to say a huge thank you to everyone that has helped by donating items for us to fill shoeboxes for the shoebox appeal. We felt as a school we would like to do our bit again this year for the shoe box appeal and help those less fortunate this Christmas by giving them a gift. We have been extremely busy wrapping the boxes and then filling them, making sure we had the correct items for the different people. We would like to thank Winnie from the women’s guild who came to help us which was great. We have managed to fill an amazing 34 shoe boxes! They have now been sent to Blythswood Care to be distributed. Again thank you very much!
