Year 5 Mini Vinnies

Year 5 have been doing excellent work this term, ‘Turning Concern into Action’ as Mini-Vinnies. First, the children began their journey as Mini-Vinnies by taking part in a special celebration and receiving their badge. Straight away, they began thinking of ideas and ways to help people in need. First up was the idea to hold a ‘Canny Friday’, which would be a whole-school food collection, with as many people as possible to bring in a tin of something to donate. The Children created posters, spoke at assembly to spread the word, organised the collection, and then took all the generous donations to church to give to the West End Food Bank. It was a huge success and a great effort by all involved.
