Ukraine Conflict
On Friday 1st April 2022 we are inviting the children and staff to wear yellow and blue clothing to show our solidarity with the people of Ukraine.
Parents and carers may wish to make a donation towards the Disaster Emergency Appeal for Ukraine.
Any donations sent in, no matter how small, will be sent to the DEC for Ukraine Appeal fund.
Or if you wish you can make your own donation by clicking on this link. Each family's circumstances are different so any donation will be welcomed by those in Ukraine or those who have recently had to leave their homes behind.
If we raise the amounts below, see what we could provide:
- £30 could provide essential hygiene supplies for three people for one month
- £50 could provide blankets for four families
- £100 could provide emergency food for two families for one month
