Charity at St Paul's
Whoever is kind to the poor lends to the LORD, and he will reward them for what they have done. Proverbs 19:17
As part of developing the children’s understanding of the common good and Catholic Social Teaching each week a different class will have a charity fundraising week based on either a local, national or global charity. Each class will decide which charity they would like to fundraise for and will complete a range of activities at home and in school to raise money and awareness.
Year 2's Charity week
To start of our Charity events at school, Year 2 decided to look closely at the Bible to see where in the Bible it tells us to help others and what it asks us to do. We have created a range of resources to share what we have found, which can be seen below.
