Dear Eagle Families, Students, and Staff,
We are thrilled to announce the launch of our very own Blessing Box at Terra Alta East Preston School! Located at the front, right-hand side of the building, this initiative represents our dedication to caring for our community, spreading kindness, and addressing immediate needs within our school family.
What is a Blessing Box?
A Blessing Box is a simple, accessible pantry where community members can share resources. It operates on the principle: "Take what you need, leave what you can". There are no forms, no questions asked—just a quiet way to support one another.
How It Works:
If You Need: Please feel free to take non-perishable food items, hygiene products, or other essential supplies when you need them.
If You Can: Consider donating items like canned goods, pasta, granola bars, toiletries, diapers, or even school supplies to keep the box full for everyone.
Why We're Doing This:
We know that sometimes our students and families face unexpected challenges, and we want to provide a readily available resource for immediate needs, ensuring no one goes without.
Let's Make It a Success!
We invite everyone to participate in making this successful. Your small contributions make a big difference. Let's work together to be a blessing and share with those who may need it.
Thank you for your continued support to Terra Alta East Preston School.
Sincerely,
Ms. Jessie
