During this week children have been organising their donations to our Harvest celebrations at FJS.

Mr Parsons from the Trussell Trust presented an assembly to the whole school and thanked them for their generous donations.

A little information about the Trussall Trust:
The foodbank is now firmly established in South Wiltshire and was given the Queen’s Jubilee for service to the community in 2003.  It was set up by The Trussell Trust (Registered Charity No 1110522), a Christian charity, and is committed to launching life changing, sustainable community based projects.
The foodbank provides short term emergency food to people in crisis.  Food is given as an intervention strategy which allows care professionals, such as Church Pastoral Workers, Health Visitors, Social Services etc, time to put longer term measures in place.  Last year the foodbank distributed over 38 tonnes of food to 4,054 people, of which 1,563 were children.  People are given enough food for at least 3 days.  We would be delighted if the children could support this charity.
