Makaton Charity Fundraiser
Mental Health Awareness week – ‘Kindness’
Being kind to others is good for your mental health and donating to a charity is even more so. Therefore for Mental Health Awareness week we are launching a fundraiser for the Makaton charity. The Makaton charity is a charity close to a lot of our hearts because of the communication it allows us with our young people and them with us.
We are asking you and your families to make a video communicating the message "Be happy and send family and friends your love." and dedicate this message.
Once you have made it email it to your class teacher through the new class emails. School will then pledge money for each video received and make a donation to the Makaton charity once we have received all of the videos.
This fundraiser is linked to the Makaton speak it, sign it, symbol it! Challenge. The Makaton Charity have challenged people to learn 5 signs and tag 5 friends to do the same. More information can be found on their website: https://makaton.charitycheckout.co.uk/cf/speak-it-sign-it-symbol-it
