Supporting Our School Community This Christmas 

2nd Dec 2025

As the festive season approaches, we know that for some families, this time of year can be especially difficult. At St. Joseph’s, we believe in coming together as a community to share kindness and support where it’s needed most.

If you know of a family within our school community who may be struggling and could benefit from a little extra help this Christmas, we invite you to nominate them anonymously. Your nomination will help us ensure that no one feels alone during this special season.

How to nominate:
Please complete this short, anonymous form by Friday 5th December:

Christmas Collection
Over the next week, we will be collecting Christmas decorations, clothes, toys and food to create festive hampers for families in need.

Once families have been nominated, we will share a list of age groups and genders to guide donations of clothes and toys, ensuring that gifts are suitable and meaningful.

Thank you for helping us spread kindness and joy this Christmas. Your generosity and care truly make our school community special.
