Rotakids at Whitchurch Primary School- Shoe Boxes and School Fair

100 Shoe Boxes!


ROTAKIDS at Whitchurch Primary School support the

OPERATION CHRISTMAS CHILD APPEAL , Cancer Research

Wales and their School

During the month of November the Rotakids decided that they would support ‘Samaritan’s Purse’ an International Relief and Development organisation that works closely with schools, churches and businesses in our communities. The Rotakids focused on supporting one of the Samaritan’s key projects ‘Operation Christmas Child’ which involved filling shoeboxes with a variety of gifts for children of different ages. The Rotakids collected 100 wrapped boxes and delivered them to Bethel Baptist Church in Whitchurch where they were sorted for their onward journey to children in need overseas.

On the 30th November Rotakids had stalls at the PTA Christmas Fair. They sold books, toys, organised a lucky dip and two competitions – ‘Guess the number of Sweets’ in a basket and ‘Name the Lion’. In three hours they raised £155.20p. The Rotakids decided that the money raised would be used to purchase items for the school. Everything remaining after the Fair was gratefully received by Cancer Research Wales in Whitchurch village. Well done Rotakids for supporting an International project, raising money for your school and supporting an extremely worthwhile local charity ‘Cancer Research Wales’.
