The Pocket School's Vanuatu goods drive was wrapped up during week 2.
Thank you to the Pocket Public School community of learners who have supported the initiative, set up by Mark Russell from www.rebuildvanuatu.com. The Pocket Public School raised $382 last term and during week two of Term three the amazing amount of clothing, sporting gear and toys collected were packed up and trucked out.
At the last minute Mark was able to organize Mullumbimby Reliable removals, who donated their time and a truck, what champions! This saved Donna from making many trips by car. Thank you to everyone involved. It is great to be supported by the incredible community we have around us here at The Pocket Public School.
Vanuatu was hit hard by cyclone Pam. The Pocket Public School hopes that the contributions we have made make a difference where needed. It is significant to be aware that even from our quiet little corner of the Byron Shire, we can have a positive impact globally. Thank you again Mark, for inviting us to work with you on this project.
