Hampers for our neighbours

As a centre we made the decision to give our elderly neighbours the gift of a hand made hamper. In school we encourage our young people, parents and staff to contribute food items or donate money to purchase items for these hampers. We then had a short shopping trip to the local supermarket, where students purchased additional items and gift wrap for the hampers to make them look even nicer!

Our KS3 students had a great time wrapping the boxes, writing a card, and filling the hampers before delivering them to our neighbours with a personal greeting.

It is great to see the students appreciating the value of giving, and taking the time to think of others.
