As a school we support many charities, and as one of our projects this term we are planning to help Link Romania by responding to their 'Christmas Shoe Box Appeal'.

All pupils in the Prep School, Senior School and Sixth Form are invited to bring into school a 'Family Shoe Box'.

Please bring your shoe box into school by Friday 13^th November, so that Representatives from the charity can collect and then deliver our contributions in good time for Christmas. The collection points will be The Underchapel at Castle (for Sixth Form and Senior Boys), Room 118 at Kings (for Senior Girls) and Prep School reception area (for Prep).

The following link leads you to a downloadable form, which needs to be printed out and attached to your shoe box. It gives a list of gifts, and instructions on how to wrap the shoe box. The leaflet includes a request for £2 to be taped to the box, which will cover transport and distribution costs.

We would be delighted if as many pupils as possible would enter into this Christmas giving, so that we can show our continued support for those less fortunate than ourselves.

Yours sincerely,

Helen-Claire Burt
