We have collected around 200 boxes in previous years and are happy to announce that this year’s annual Christmas Shoe Box Appeal is now underway. The Christmas Shoebox Campaign has been initiated by Team Hope Ireland, a child-focused international development organisation helping vulnerable children oversees. Every box makes a difference to a child affected by poverty. A big Thank you goes to Ms Thielemans, who is in charge of the organization and collection of the donated boxed and also to St. Kilian’s students and parents, who always generously support this great campaign. The boxes can be left on the stage in the assembly for Primary school and Kindergarten and on a table in front of the stairs near the canteen for Secondary school. The deadline is the 15th of November. We are looking forward to the numerous shoeboxes wrapped in colourful paper.
