RSPCA Compassionate Class
We did some online lessons about animal welfare and development of empathy and compassion. The Go Givers then chose the area of Animal Heroes to create their entry, which consisted of the film, posters a comic book and a Scratch game. Learning about Animal Heroes meant they found out about the needs of animals who help humans and how the people who work with guide dogs, sniffer dogs, fire dogs, assistance dogs etc. know their needs are met. They also discussed the moral implications of animals doing such work. You can watch the film and play the game below.
RSPCA Compassionate Class Scratch Game
Some of our GoGivers designed this Scratch game as their entry into the RSPCA competition.

South Sefton Foodbank
We are a collection point for South Sefton Foodbank. On Friday 12th October the children will be celebrating Harvest Festival with a harvest liturgy led by our GoGivers group. As part of this celebration we ask that the children bring an item for the Foodbank. They are always in need of tinned and dried foods; longlife milk and juice; and treat foods such as biscuits, chocolate and jam. They also need toiletries; kitchen and bathroom cleaning products; nappies and formula milk for babies of all ages are also much appreciated.
Please send items in to school. They are currently short of tinned vegetables, noodles and coffee. Find out more at https://southsefton.foodbank.org.uk Many thanks for your continued support.
