De La Salle Academy doing their bit for charity

De La Salle Academy, Liverpool, took part in the Macmillan Coffee Morning on September 25th. We invited the local community to join us for tea, coffee and a fabulous selection of cakes! Some of our Year 9 students were wonderful waiters for the morning and it was lovely to see members of our school and local community after a difficult 18 months while raising money for such a worthwhile cause.

On Friday October 8th we supported Young Minds #wearyellow campaign to mark World Mental Health Day. We held a cake sale at break time and students had lessons on various aspects of mental health including how to recognise mental health issues, how to keep their minds healthy and where to get help should they need it. Staff and students also wore yellow for the day.

We have a busy half term coming up with Children in Need, collecting for our local food banks, creating Advent food hampers and taking part in Pyjama Party Liverpool which collects pyjamas to give to children at Christmas. We will update you with how we get on.
