We are putting a collection box in the staff corridor for donations to be put in, and then we are organising for the charity rep to come and collect these. ]]> 2018-09-08 12:29:01 UTC https://padlet.com/i_mckee/ggzlz7bq3gvw/wish/279075787 i_mckee https://padlet.com/i_mckee/ggzlz7bq3gvw/wish/279075922 We have contacted a representative from our chosen charity (Baby Basics) to see what it is exactly that they need by way of donations, and they have supplied us with flyers, banners and wristbands. ]]> 2018-09-08 12:31:21 UTC https://padlet.com/i_mckee/ggzlz7bq3gvw/wish/279075922 i_mckee https://padlet.com/i_mckee/ggzlz7bq3gvw/wish/279075990 If there is a response from the school and they donate items and buy from our cake sale then we will know it has been successful.]]> 2018-09-08 12:33:17 UTC https://padlet.com/i_mckee/ggzlz7bq3gvw/wish/279075990 i_mckee https://padlet.com/i_mckee/ggzlz7bq3gvw/wish/279076126 The charity gave us a card that they had received from a mother that they helped due to donations, and this showed us how huge the impact was on her life, and therefore how much of an impact there had been on her child's life due to donations. After hearing about this we were motivated to collect and raise as much as we could so that we could help more families.]]> 2018-09-08 12:34:48 UTC https://padlet.com/i_mckee/ggzlz7bq3gvw/wish/279076126 i_mckee https://padlet.com/i_mckee/ggzlz7bq3gvw/wish/279076285 I am still very passionate about this project and I am excited to hand over our donations so that these families can be assisted. ]]> 2018-09-08 12:37:14 UTC https://padlet.com/i_mckee/ggzlz7bq3gvw/wish/279076285 i_mckee https://padlet.com/i_mckee/ggzlz7bq3gvw/wish/279076400 Through our cake sale we were able to raise £118.20, and following our assembly we received a huge amount of donations. The assembly also helped to raise an awareness for the charity and the cause that they are working for. ]]> 2018-09-08 12:39:17 UTC https://padlet.com/i_mckee/ggzlz7bq3gvw/wish/279076400 i_mckee https://padlet.com/i_mckee/ggzlz7bq3gvw/wish/279076760 We had to choose a time when the most people would be at school, so a time when no year group was away on a residential trip or on study leave. Therefore we decided that it would be best do use the spring term and collect donations up until the end of the year, so that anyone that might want to donate but didn't have time to get anything would have a larger amount of time to bring their donations in. This worked well as we can see from the amount of donations we received. ]]> 2018-09-08 12:45:48 UTC https://padlet.com/i_mckee/ggzlz7bq3gvw/wish/279076760 i_mckee https://padlet.com/i_mckee/ggzlz7bq3gvw/wish/279077027 I think this project has been very successful as we received a large amount of donations and we have therefore been able to make a very positive impact on the lives of the families that the charity supports. ]]> 2018-09-08 12:50:32 UTC https://padlet.com/i_mckee/ggzlz7bq3gvw/wish/279077027 i_mckee https://padlet.com/i_mckee/ggzlz7bq3gvw/wish/279077435 I am basing my belief that this was a successful project off of the huge response that we had, through people donating both money and useful objects, as well as how through doing an assembly where a representative from the charity came in we were able to raise awareness for them. ]]> 2018-09-08 12:58:13 UTC https://padlet.com/i_mckee/ggzlz7bq3gvw/wish/279077435 i_mckee https://padlet.com/i_mckee/ggzlz7bq3gvw/wish/279077551 I have learnt communication, as I have had to contact the representative from the charity as well as speaking in assembly. I have learnt problem solving through having to decide when would be best to hold the events so that we could have the biggest impact. The 3rd skill that I have learnt is how to work in a team, because it was important to work well together and come to decisions as a group and to be able to compromise for the good of the charity. ]]> 2018-09-08 13:00:50 UTC https://padlet.com/i_mckee/ggzlz7bq3gvw/wish/279077551 i_mckee https://padlet.com/i_mckee/ggzlz7bq3gvw/wish/282976836 I did big sister little sister for half an hour a week from September until May, I volunteered in year 7 History lessons for 1 hour and 10 minutes once a week from September until May, I helped at the Junior School Sparkle party for 3 hours in December, I volunteered doing number partners for half an hour a week from January until May, I helped at open day for 3 hours, I helped at the sixth form open evening for 2 hours and I have done 5 hours worth of tours of the school]]> 2018-09-18 15:26:04 UTC https://padlet.com/i_mckee/ggzlz7bq3gvw/wish/282976836
