As a school that has been forming ‘young men and women for others’ in East London for almost 90 years, we have been doing what we can to provide support and a welcome to those most in need this Christmas.
Throughout the Advent season, we collected donations for the Jesuit Refugee Service - a local charity providing support to those without any access to public funds.
Each day students and staff brought in donations of food, clothes and toiletries. These were delivered to the JRS offices in Wapping during the last week of term along with Christmas cards written by our Year 10 students containing messages of support and solidarity. Our thanks to Ms Harrison and 7 Katharine for their help sorting all of the donations and to Mr Gladstone for driving the school minibus to deliver them.
