Hudson Park Primary 6 OCTOBER 2014 Supporting Greensleeves Place of Safety We raised R5005 for Greensleeves by holding a Civvies Day. Learners wore green to show their support, and it made us very proud to see the sea of green outfits during assembly on Friday morning. Rebecca Bank, chairperson of the Pastoral Committee, handed this donation to Mrs Di Lehy of Greensleeves.
A day of fun was had by all who attended the Greensleeves Carnival at Greensleeves Farm on 27 September. Members of the Pastoral Outreach Group worked with children from Greensleeves to put on a joint performance of two dances and a song. Our learners also played soccer and netball matches against teams from Greensleeves, entertained with song and dance, ran the 5 km Fun Run, and soaked in the happy carnival atmosphere.
