Dear Parents,
As part of our topic on Africa, we have made a
link with a colleague from Rochdale who is travelling with a group of Transformational Coaches
to Liberia, Africa. During their time in Africa, the coaches will be
re-building a local school. They will be providing them with clean water and
shelter and they will be taking this opportunity to really make a difference to
children’s lives.
In Year 1, we would like to help these coaches help the children in Africa by donating everyday items that we take for granted. On Friday 9th May 2014, Year 1 will be organising a non-uniform day in exchange for children bringing in one of these items:
· Toothbrushes
· Soaps
· Storybooks
· Sandals
or summer shoes (they do not need to be new, used are fine, as long as they are
in wearable condition).
On Monday 12th May 2014, one of the
coaches will be coming into school to collect our donations to take with her
to Africa. This will happen during an assembly at 2.15pm. All parents are
welcome to attend the assembly to support their children.
Furthermore, the Year 1 children will be able to
follow the trip and see the children in Africa by connecting to a blog,
annipoole.blogspot.com.
