> Thank you to our generous school community for donating cans for us to give to the Salvation Army who will pass them on to families in need this Christmas.
>
> The children in Titoki 6 had a wonderful time taking these cans and creating an enormous Christmas tree before the cans were collected for distribution.
What?
This year I assisted in organizing the Cans for Good can drive for the Salvation Army. I coordinated the cans being collected from the children on the day, worked with the Salvation Army to collect the cans and then wrote a blog post for our school newsletter to report on the success of this event to our school whanau.
So What?
This was a wonderful experience for our tamariki to look beyond themselves and think about how they could contribute to those in greater need than themselves. This provided a great way for our school community to come together to support a cause which always a wonderful way to build community and increase wellbeing by doing good.
Now What?
Continue to find opportunities to support and lead school events which build our community and help our tamariki to look at the wider world and ways they can make positive contributions to this world.
Report these opportunities and events to grow goodwill in our school and wider community.
