Last Wednesday, the St. Peter’s Primary Student Council had a very, very important meeting. We decided early in the year that we wanted to run a meaningful fundraiser before Christmas. We have decided to help those in need this Christmas, and also to have a little fun when doing so!
We have decided to do these things:
1. Run a fun, Crazy Sock Day where all staff and students will wear CRAZY socks to school. Everyone will be asked to kindly give €1 to charity! We will then use the money to buy Concern Gifts for people in need! Here are Aoife and John telling everyone about it as they made the classroom announcements!
2. We will also run a Toy Appeal this Christmas, to help people in need this Christmas. It can help grandparents, uncles and aunties who like to give treats at Christmas. It makes everyone feel great to give at Christmas!
Listen to our podcast all about it!

We listened to the podcast to remind ourselves of all the work that the Student Council are doing. We’re looking forward to Sock Day! Our Student Council reps are Jerry and Ava. We think they’re doing a great job.

To all the pupils and teachers in St. Peter’s,
YOU ARE BRILLIANT!!!
Thank you for supporting Concern with your excellent Crazy Sock Day. What an imaginative and thoughtful Student Council you have!
The Concern Christmas gift you buy with your Sock money will make a huge difference to the lives of children and families in the world’s poorest countries. So here’s a big thank you from them!
Thank you very much!
