On Thursday 11 December, Brunswick Park school will be taking part in Save the Children’s Christmas Jumper Day.
This is a fundraising event where children wear a jumper, celebration clothes or other festive outfit and donate money to help children in the UK and all around the world. We know times are tough, so please remember that whatever you can spare is fine – and if you can’t spare anything that’s fine too.
To make donating easier we’ve set up a JustGiving page. The minimum donation is £1 (remember, you don’t have to add the tip if you don’t want to!) Brunswick Park Primary School – Christmas Jumper Day is raising money for Save The Children!
Save the Children is encouraging people not to buy new jumpers for the day. You could upcycle an old jumper, get crafty or head to your local charity shop to buy a pre-loved festive knit. We love home made jumpers! If you want to get creative and decorate a jumper, the Christmas Jumper Day website contains lots of fun craft ideas.
This year, donating £2 could buy a packet of seeds for a family in Kenya to grow their own food, after drought has killed their crops, or a combined donation of £160 from our whole school could help train a psychological first aider to help children in Ukraine recover from their traumatic experience.
We’d appreciate your support to make Save the Children’s Christmas Jumper Day a success.
Together, we can make the world better with a sweater.
Thank you for your support.
