Over the last few weeks P7 pupils have been busy organising and packing shoeboxes full of sweets, school supplies, toiletries, clothing and toys to send to children in countries such as Kosovo, India and Romania. This was done as part of an appeal by the charity Blythswood Trust.

Thanks to the time and organisation of our P7 pupils and the generosity of our pupils, staff, parents and carers we managed to pack an incredible 55 shoe boxes as well as providing the charity with 3 sacks full of surplus supplies to be fitted into shoeboxes at their sorting warehouse.

The effort made will result in 55 children and young people receiving a Christmas gift this year as opposed to nothing at all.

The P7 pupils and I would like to thank everyone for their generosity and support for this wonderful charity!
