I’m sure like everyone in school you have been asking “How can we help the families of Ukraine?” The children and staff have been praying for peace . You may like to share this prayer with your children at home.
A prayer-for-peace-Children’s
The children and staff have also decided that the focus of our Lenten giving this year will be to help the children and families of Ukraine in a practical way.
We would like to support The Archdiocese of Liverpool who have organised parish collection points for essential goods which will be transported to help Ukrainian families in need .
Each Friday during Lent we are asking the children to donate a new essential survival item from the list below and then school staff will deliver the goods to a local parish collection centre. Each class will have a donation box to collect the items received and please ensure all items are new and unopened.
