Junior School Council - Charity Drive
This term, our school is taking part in a donation drive to support families in Australia who are doing it tough through a charity organisation called ‘The Big Group Hug’.
The Big Group Hug is an organisation serving local communities to tackle child poverty. They help vulnerable children who are living in crisis by distributing essential items in times of need. They are committed to supporting every young family who asks for help while ensuring that the child remains the focus of everything they do.
We invite all families at CSPS to donate any unused or unwanted items by placing them in the donation bins located around our school grounds.
