Each year, we ask our children to choose three charities they would like to support. We choose one local charity, one national charity and one global charity to support throughout the school year. For more information about how we choose charities, please see here.

 

This year we have already held a school fundraiser for Ealing food bank in the Autumn term. On Wednesday 24^th April we will hold our second charity event for the national charity Cancer Research.

 

On the day the pupils will be learning about the importance of supporting charities and how this links to one of our school values, empathy.  In class pupils will be making a class empathy paper chain, sharing their ideas of how else they can demonstrate empathy towards others.

 

To support the charity, we ask families to donate a small monetary contribution on Wednesday 24^th April (we suggest £1.) The money will be collected from classes and donated to the charity to support the important work that they do.

 

Teachers have carefully planned the values lesson to be mindful and sensitive to pupils who have been directly impacted by cancer.
