As part of our ‘Love Project’ for the Autumn term we are asking families to support Operation Christmas Child.
Operation Christmas Child is a project of Samaritan’s Purse, a Christian international relief organisation. Through Operation Christmas Child, Samaritan’s Purse aims to provide children affected by war, poverty, natural disaster or famine with shoeboxes filled with small toys, hygiene items, and school supplies.
This year, in conjunction with Christ Church, we have provided each class with two Operation Christmas Child shoe boxes. We are asking for children to bring in a couple of items suitable for boys or girls between the ages of 5 and 9 to fill these boxes.
What items can I dontate?
You can find a list of suitable items on the Samaritan’s Purse website: https://www.samaritans-purse.org.uk/what-we-do/operation-christmas-child/what-goes-in-my-shoebox/
Shoebox Deadline:
All items need to be brought into school by Wednesday 15th November. You are also more than welcome to make your own shoe boxes too. Thank you in advance for your support.
