As part of our Wellbeing and Citizenship modules in MEC we are appealing to students to become involved in the Shoebox appeal for 2019. As a large school community, we have the opportunity to make a real difference this Christmas. We hope that many homes in Maynooth would have a few bits and pieces in their homes due to the extra shopping for supplies that was done this August and September. It should not cause a financial strain if the students can get organised and start gathering a few things together over the coming weeks.
Generally speaking, the box should contain the four Ws:
Something to Write with (pen, colours, notebook, copy etc),
Wash with (toothpaste, soap. facecloth, tissues etc),
Wear (hat, gloves, underwear, socks etc)
A WOW! (jellies, toy car, fidget spinner etc).
The box also needs a donation of €4 to cover transport. Boxes must be collected in school after the Halloween break. Approx collection date Monday 4th Nov. DETAILS AVAILABLE ON THE TEAM HOPE WEBSITE.
