Food Bank

During December, Y6 (with lots of help from the rest of High View too) have been doing a "reverse advent calendar".  Instead of taking from a calendar, they have been giving!  Many have brought in generous donations for the food bank.  This will enable lots of less fortunate families to have an easier and happier Christmas.  

Today, Y6 walked down to the food bank with our donations.  The children loaded up their backpacks before we went.  There was enough to fill the rucksacks of all the children and staff, plus Mrs Hunt's car boot!  

We were welcomed with open arms and filled over 15 crates with pasta, cans of food, tea, sugar etc.

We really could not be more proud of our children and their families for the immense generosity.  The children have learnt so much about helping others through this project.  Enjoy the photos below from this morning!

Off we go!

What a great hoard!  And this was less than a third of it!
