Children listening to Helen Peters
On Friday 24th May the Mini Vinnies met with Helen Peters who works with our local food bank.
The Mini Vinnies heard how the food bank is in need of food and resources and how they could help!
Helen gave the children lots of useful information and later on today they have already planned to do something to support Helen and her work!
We are grateful to Helen for coming in to talk to our children and we hope to work closely with her in the future!
CAFOD donation envelopes
On Friday 15th March the children all took part in CAFOD Lent Fast Day.
Everyone gave up their playtime snack during morning break time and donated pennies to CAFOD instead. This act helps us to both fast and give alms – two of the things the church asks us to do during Lent.
Well done everyone for taking part.
Reception class during their Pancake Flip
On Tuesday 5th March we held our annual Pancake Flip in school!
Everyone from Nursery through to Year 6 was invited to get sponsored to complete the Pancake Flip in the hall to raise money as we prepared to enter the Liturgical season of Lent.
The children had a lovely time and we hope that we have raised lots of money for charity!
Two of our entries!
On Tuesday 18th December Miss Wisniewski sent off the Mini Vinnie Christmas Card entries from our own Mini Vinnies here at St Joseph’s.
Well done children and good luck to you all!
The donated tins of food
On Monday 17th and Tuesday 18th December the children and their families donated tins of food for the Good Shepherd Appeal in Wolverhampton.
Lots of families donated tins which the Good Shepherd Appeal will use to feed people who are homeless during the Christmas period. We are very grateful for everyone’s generosity and proud that our families are so kind!
Thank you everyone!
The Mini Vinnies on their Charity Winter Walk!
On Friday 23rd November the children from the Mini Vinnies team in school took part in a Winter Walk to raise money for the SVP charity.
The idea came from the children who wanted to raise money for the SVP and thought a sponsored walk around the local area would be a good idea!
Well done Mini Vinnies for your great ideas to raise money for the SVP and taking part in the sponsored walk even when the weather was REALLY cold!
Two of our poppy sellers!
During the week beginning Monday 15th October the children have been selling a range of items along with poppies to support the 2018 Poppy Appeal.
Lots of children have brought rulers, pencils and poppies to support the appeal and we hope to raise lots of money for this very important charity.
Well done children!
Our display of all of the tins donated
On Monday 24th and Tuesday 25th September the families of our school donated lots and lots of tins of food which we will send to the Good Shepherd Appeal in Wolverhampton who work with and help the homeless.
We are so grateful for the generosity that our families have shown in thinking about and helping others in our community who are in need.
We created a lovely display of all the tins for our Harvest Mass in school and the Good Shepherd Appeal helpers will be collecting the tins this week and putting them to very good use.
Thank-you everyone!
Two of the children from Year 2 handing over the cheque
On Tuesday 24th April the children from Year 2 handed over the charity money they had raised to Father Emmanuel.
The children form Year 2 chose to give their share of the charity money we raised during Lent to the Church.
Father was very touched that the children had thought of him and the Church and was very grateful to receive the cheque which will go into the Church’s Maintenance Fund.
Two of our Mini Vinnies at work!
On Wednesday 28th February two of our Mini Vinnies delivered the special CAFOD Fast Day envelopes to all the children in school.
Friday 2nd March is CAFOD Family Fast Day in school where children are invited to give up their playtime snack and give the pennies that a snack would cost to CAFOD in the special envelopes.
Well done Mini Vinnies!
