Helping the community by donating Christmas Hampers to local care home

One of the amazing festive activities we have at Giles Academy is to give something back to the local community by creating ‘Christmas Hampers’ for residents at The Minstrels Care Home in Wrangle.

Last year we donated 35 hampers generously packed full of festive cheer. As some of the elderly people at The Minstrels Care Home may have no family or friends, this act of kindness will definitely be much appreciated at Christmas. This act of kindness will definitely be much appreciated at Christmas.

Each form will have the same sized box to dress in their very own Christmas theme, whether that is using wrapping paper or painting and decorating. Then students in each form are asked to donate an item to put in the hamper. We would like to thank Warners Group Printers in Bourne for kindly donating these boxes to use.

The Christmas hampers are scheduled to be delivered to The Minstrels Care Home in the last full week of term so everyone should bring in their donations by Friday 13th December 2024 at the latest.
