A big thank you to everyone who donated a ‘Christmas Shoebox’ to the 2018 Team Hope Appeal! In total, our school donated 224 shoeboxes! A fantastic achievement! In 2017, our school donated 196 shoeboxes. Ms. McDonald’s Senior Infants were very busy helping Shirley from Team Hope load all the shoeboxes into her car. They were like Santa’s elves loading the sleigh on Christmas Eve! 🙂 Check out www.teamhope.ie to see where all your shoeboxes go! 🙂

The 2018 Team Hope ‘Christmas Shoebox’ Appeal is now under way. If you would like to donate to this very worthy appeal, you can leave a filled shoebox into the school reception up until Friday November 9th. We were lucky enough to have three Team Hope volunteers visit our school and explain to us all about the appeal. More information is available on www.teamhope.ie  Extra leaflets are available in Ms. McDonald’s room, Rm 3. Last year our school donated 196 shoe boxes to Team Hope. We are hoping to donate even more this year!! 🙂
