Children Collect Infant Essentials for London Charity

This Christmas season, The Gower School Nursery and Primary school has been on a mission to spread cheer to underpriveleged families in London. 

The School Council made it their mission to support Families in Action Together (FAcT), a baby bank based in Harrow Wealdstone, by appealing to our school community for infant essentials and winter coats. This includes dozens of packs of nappies, children’s coats, shoes, blankets and clothes which will surely spread happiness to the families in need this Christmas season. The Gower School’s Primary and Nursery schoolchildren collected well over a hundred individual items for the baby bank.

When the founder of FAcT’s baby bank arrived to collect the donations, our Head Girl Megan, Chair of School Council Lourenco, and several other School Council representatives helped set out the goods and discuss the importance of giving during the holiday season. Principal Miss Emma Gowers, finds pride in her pupils’ collection efforts, saying, ‘It’s really important for children to help other children, and great to be giving during the festive season when so many are in need.’ 

On the morning of Wednesday 6th December, the school choir will sing popular Christmas carols outside the school gates to raise donations for FAcT. We do hope that their singing will awaken the giving spirit in all who attend.
