Last Friday was ‘Bad Taste/Bad Hair’ Dress Down Day in order to raise money for UNICEF.

Throughout the week children had collected from friends and family as well as from their own funds because they knew that just a little would make a difference to other children .

Wow, What a fantastic result!!! Over $1,000 was collected which will go to help children have clean water, good health, education and adequate food.

You have made a difference to hundreds of children – well done every single one of you!!

Today we began our 4th annual collection for UNICEF.

In our school assembly, we learned about UNICEF and how it helps children around the world to have access to basic things like medicine, clean water, food, and an education.

We learned how we could all make a big difference to the lives of other children, by fund raising for money to put into our little orange boxes and by donating a dollar on our special ‘Bad Taste or Bad Hair Day’ dress-down day on Friday 27th October.

We learned that we truly have the power to change the world, because it only takes pennies to save a life! Every penny counts, with only 7 cents paying for crayons for a class of children, or $1 to pay for a shot that helps children not get sick.

Help your child learn the importance of helping others in need and to feel empowered to make a real difference. Talk to them about how they could fund raise at home, e.g., by doing chores and remind them to return their orange box on dress-down Day, Friday 27th October for the big count up!
Learn even more about how UNICEF helps children by playing the UNICEF World Heroes game. Your mission: collect essential supplies in your UNICEF truck, and deliver them to kids in need around the world!
