Thank you to everyone for all your fund raising so far. We had a visit from Nick at Trocaire to tell us a bit about this year’s focus on Malawi. Malawi is often referred to as the warm heart of Africa. It is a country with extremely high levels of poverty, where life is already a struggle for many. Climate change means flooding and droughts are becoming both more extreme and unpredictable. People are losing their homes, their livelihoods and even their lives. Through our fund raising we can help people improve their lives.
Ash Wednesday saw the beginning of our Lenten Fundraising Campaign. The boys and girls will be taking part in various activities – selling buns, ballots and taking part in sponsored walks, making Mother’s Day planters, among many other activities.
Our main event is our Freddie Fitness Day. Freddy will be in with us on Tuesday 26th March for the ‘Fun Day’ which is a sponsored event to raise money for Trocaire.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank our parents in advance for the very generous support throughout Lent for the many fundraising activities that will be happening in all of our classes. We have raised fantastic amounts in previous years in support of our Lenten Campaign and hope to be just as successful again this year.
