(Back)Packing a punch against illiteracy

Backpacks Stanley Grove 2016Wakefield Soroptimists have recently worked with Stanley Grove school to collect backpacks containing items for use in school to be sent via charity Mary’s Meals to children in Africa to enable them to attend school. Jane Walton spoke at an assembly and asked pupils leaving school to donate their old backpacks. Members visited school to collect the backpacks at the end of term.
