REC Reflections
This term’s fundraising is centred on collecting food items for community-based Christmas hampers. Each week there will be a new category for the donations. This week we have been collecting boxes of breakfast cereal. Next week we will be collecting condiments and sauces such as pasta sauce (for all the pasta we have collected!), jams, tomato and barbecue sauce, salad dressings etc. Below is a list of the other items we will be collecting on a week-by-week basis, but we are open to receiving them at any time!
For all items, please check that expiry dates extend into 2020. Thanks!
Week 4- spreads, condiments, dressings, sauces (such as Vegemite, jams, honey, peanut butter, barbecue sauce, tomato sauce, pasta sauce, mayonnaise, salad dressing etc.)
Week 5 – biscuits (in boxes or packets, sweet or savoury)
Week 6- drinks (juice in boxes or plastic, tea, coffee, Milo etc.)
Week 7 – treat foods for Christmas (chips, lollies, Christmas biscuits or puddings, long life custard, cranberry sauce, chocolates, Christmas crackers etc.)
At the end of Week 8, all of the items that we have collected will be delivered to the community groups that will be preparing the Christmas hampers.
