Attached below is a letter that will be sent home with your child this afternoon.
23rd August 2016
Dear Parents,
It is the time of year when we ask for the support of the OLC community to help children
in need by providing items that can be packaged in shoeboxes and sent to those
in need.
The shoeboxes our school helps to send may be the
only gift that the child receives all year and they are very gratefully
received!
This year we will have a combined effort between
the Year 4, 5 and 6 classrooms to donate items that can be used to package the
boxes.
In Year 5 all students will provide 2 items for the shoebox and $2.50 to pay for the postage of
the boxes.
SOMETHING TO PLAY WITH Tennis ball, cars, skipping
rope, marbles, musical instrument, yo-yo, slinky, finger puppets, wind up torch,
etc.
SOMETHING TO WEAR T-shirt, polo, shirt,
shorts, skirt, cap, beanie, sandals, etc.
Your child
will be given the age of the student to bring in appropriate items for.
Boys will buy for boys and girls will buy for girls.
These items will be centrally collected and then
we will pack the shoeboxes once all items are in.
Please make sure that you have brought your items
and money in by Monday 12th
September.
If you have any questions or concerns, please do
not hesitate to contact me.
Kindest regards,
Ben Danaher
