Alder Hey toy donations
Bridgewater High School is very proud to be supporting the Alder Hey Hospital this Christmas:
Every year Alder Hey care for over 270,000 children, young people and their families and they lead research into children’s medicines, infection, inflammation and oncology. Coming up to Christmas can be especially hard on young children and their families and we at Bridgewater High School intend to bring a smile to the children’s faces.
We are asking students in Years 7,8,9 to give up one of their toys from Santa to donate to a child who will be spending their Christmas in hospital ill.
What we are looking for is:
- Any new toy between the ages of 4+ onwards (NOT Wrapped)
- The toys can be for boys or girls e.g. boys and girls Lego, dolls or action figures, educational toys
- Some children will be staying in hospital over the Christmas period so some board games or toys that will take some time to build or make.
- The cost of the toy is totally up to you it can be any cost. I am hoping if there are any businesses in the Bridgewater Community that they might want to sponsor some of the bigger items to donate to the appeal e.g. remote control cars or star wars Lego ships
- NO toy guns please
There is no obligation to donate.
Alder Hey hospital is an amazing place and we all wish that we would never need to call upon it for specialist help. For those who have to, I would love to bring a smile to their faces in a time when they should be at home with families and relatives.
Any presents donated needs to be given into Lower School office by Wednesday 8th December. Anyone wishing to donate larger items please contact me if you wish some ideas otherwise whatever you wish.
Thank you for helping to bring smiles and happiness at Christmas.
Mr P MacKay
