Shoebox Appeal Speaker, Mr. McCann

Mr. Gordon Mc Cann joined us at Full School Assembly on Tuesday, 20th October.  Mr. Mc Cann represents the Samaritan’s Purse Charity who organise the Shoebox Appeal in the lead up to Christmas.  We have for several years supported this very worthwhile charity who take the gift filled shoeboxes to different areas of the world to distribute them to severely deprived children,  many of whom have NEVER received a  Christmas present.  Our RE Department will once again be organising the collection of shoeboxes from pupils this year.
