Lent Charity – Ealing Foodbank- donations welcomed 4-8 March

Foodbank Collection of Non – Perishable items 

From 4-8 March we will be supporting Ealing Foodbank, as our whole school Lent Charity. Staff from the Foodbank have visited school and shared with pupils the valuable work they do in our local community, supporting families for short periods of time when they are most in need.

Next week we will be collecting non perishable food items at both Broadway and Grove sites on the gates at morning drop off. A list of the items that the Food Bank needs most at the moment is provided below. If you are able to, please do add a tin or two to your shop and send them into school next week.
