The Giving Tree is back for 2021, supporting the Waikato branch of Women's Refuge.

We are after non-perishable food (tea bags, pasta, canned goods etc) and particularly festive items such as chocolate santas, jelly, candy canes and similar, as these are the special items families in need will not be able to consider in tough times.

We would also love to be able to donate unwrapped Christmas gifts for children in need.

You can place your donations under the Giving Tree in Te Aroha.

Thank you to those families who have already donated - many students have loved popping in and dropping off food and gifts (which is important learning about gratitude and being community-minded).
