Cash campaign at St Joseph’s

The children from St Joseph’s Primary and Nursery Class proudly presented cheques to representatives from charities.

They collected the money by doing a variety of fun activities during Lent.

A onesie day, a sponsored salsathon and a talent show were just some of the events organised by the children to raise the funds.

The Lent fundraising campaign is a long-standing tradition at the school and this year the total collected was more than £2600 in just over four weeks.

The charities which benefited were St Andrew’s Hospice, Let the Children Live, Robyn House, SCIAF and Missio.
