In the lead up to Christmas we will be doing a food collection in support of the Lighthouse Support Centre Food bank.
This has been a long standing tradition for Cults Academy and was originally started to highlight the disparity between different communities in the City of Aberdeen. In creating a partnership with this particular charity, our aim was to raise awareness by supporting a community connected to Cults by the number 19 bus route. This bus travels through the City of Aberdeen from the community of Cults to the community of Tillydrone. This year, due to the hardship inflicted by the global pandemic the charity are extremely stretched and are currently supporting in excess of 100 families. The charity has benefited from the generosity of Cults Academy pupils, parents and staff for many years and we are hoping that this year we can continue this tradition.
There will be collection points at each of the school entrances each morning where pupils can drop off their donations. Items to consider for donation:
* Tinned Food
* Biscuits
* Condiments
* Tea/Coffee/Sugar
* Long Life Milk
* Cereal
* Jams
* Pasta
* Pasta Sauces
* Diluting Juice
* Cleaning Materials
