Kerem school children show their support to Laniado

28/04/2008

Sick children from Laniado hospital will benefit from 60 CDs, videos and tapes collected by Kerem's pupils to mark Kerem school's 60th anniversary, which also coincides with the 60th anniversary of the declaration of the State of Israel.

The "60 for 60" social action project saw all seven classes at the school in Norrice Lea assigned a charity which is based in the UK, Israel or the developing world.

Each class's mission was to collect 60 relevant items in one month for the chosen charity.

The school has organised a celebratory event at the beginning of May to show the pupils what their hard work will do.

The feeling was echoed by Nicola Maltz,10, who collected for Laniado hospital. She said:"It was great that the whole school was collecting things. It was interesting that each class was collecting for different charities".
