Our Mini Cadets would like to give gifts to our local children’s ward at the William Harvey Hospital. The Padua Ward has been visited by the police officers that run our Mini Cadets, and the staff explained that they are in need of gifts, toys etc for the children that stay on their wards. The Mini Cadets made a list of the types of items needed, and once they have collected them, they will be making up individual shoeboxes for the children.

All items can be second-hand apart from teddies, soft or fluffy toys which can only be new. Please could all items be cleaned, like new and in good working order.

Ideas for items needed for the shoeboxes:

·         Wordsearch books

·         Puzzle books

·         Colouring in books

·         Colouring pens

·         Nail varnish

·         Pamper sets

·         Reading books

·         Fidgets

·         Baby toys

·         Board games

·         Play dough

·         Dobble

·         Uno

·         Card games

·         Baby grows

·         Vests

The hospital would also like any bigger items for their play room on the Padua Ward; toys, board games etc, but again, please ensure that these are like new condition, clean and in good working order.

THE MINI CADETS WILL BE ON THE SCHOOL GATES AT MORNING DROP OFF FROM MONDAY 1ST DECEMBER TO FRIDAY 5TH DECEMBER – PLEASE BRING ANY DONATIONS TO THE MORNING GATE THAT WEEK.
