Foodbank Food Drive

Thank you to all those who have sent in donations for the Foodbank Food Drive. Your generosity is very much appreciated.

 

Many families in the Perth Metropolitan area are going without decent food due to the increase in the cost of living. It would be very much appreciated if donations of non-perishable food items can continue to come in before Dec. 13.

 

We will pass your donations on to Foodbank which is a very reputable charity that helps hundreds of West Australians with meals each week. Below are some examples of items that you can donate to help make the holiday season better for a number of West Australian families.

 

Thank you

 

Mrs Clark, Mrs Paxton and the students from Room 11.
