The Transition Year class, 4 Le Chéile are co-ordinating the TEAMHOPE Shoebox Appeal. They would like each class group to put together as many shoe boxes as they can. Students can make their own or the class can make some together.
Follow these easy steps….
- Grab a Shoe box: Wrap the box and lid separately with Christmas paper. (We can provide you with empty shoeboxes if you need some)
- Choose who you want to give your Christmas Shoebox to and what age.
- Fill the box
Get as creative and fun as you like with this! – You can use the four W’s as a rough guide (see below) - Add four euro to the box if possible (fundraising should cover this)
- Close the box with elastic band
ALL COMPLETED SHOE BOXES ARE TO BE IN SCHOOL BY THE 7TH NOVEMBER AT THE LATEST
