This festive season, the Junior School has been busy completing a Reverse Advent Calendar to donate to our wonderful local charities and help give all families an enjoyable Christmas. Each year group was designated a day and a donation type, plus there was a whole school appeal for tinned soup and Christmas decorations to go to Blackheath’s Age Exchange, and another to supply new toys for the Salvation Army appeal. Members of our Junior Team also volunteer at the Trussell Trust and Lewisham Salvation Army, so we thank you enormously for all your generosity in gifting these much-needed items for Christmas.
