This Christmas, we are going to do a Reverse Advent Calendar; instead of receiving an Advent treat, we plan to donate one to our local food bank!  On any day in December, your child can bring in any of the following items, knowing they will go to a local community cause.  The Purple People Kitchen have given us a list of useful goods that are needed for the food bank.  They need coffee, tinned fish, tinned meat, tinned or packet soup, cook-in sauces, rice, pasta, cereals, biscuits and any long life food items.  They have suggested toiletries, washing detergent, toilet paper, nappies, baby wipes and sanitary items would also be very useful.
