Last week the children of Herm Primary School visited the GSPCA Animal Shelter after having joined in the GSPCA Cupcake fundraising week, raising a fantastic £40.
During Cupcake Week the children were all encouraged to bring in cupcakes to sell and they also spent the morning decorating some which had been brought in by Herm school teacher Mrs Mary Carey. The children handed over the money they raised to Emma Trousdale the GSPCA Education and Welfare Officer when they visited the Shelter last week.
Emma said ‘It was lovely meeting Catrin, India, Morgan, Brandon, Ffion, Eden, Elliot, Ryan and of course Mrs Mary Carey.’ ‘We have been running school trips to the Shelter regularly now and we love talking to the children about our message of caring for animals.’ ‘They all really enjoyed the day and we all had a lot of fun at the same time as teaching them a very important message.’ ‘We really appreciate everyone that took part in Cupcake Week and it was lovely to give the children certificates of thanks.’
If anyone is interested in arranging a school visit then please contact Emma by calling 01481 257261 or email [email protected]
We do not charge for the school visits and Emma is happy to discuss details.
