P & C NEWS

With many helping hands we can assist the local Samaritans in East Maitland provide much needed relief to in excess of 1000 families living in our area needing help to provide for their families. The volume of assistance required is higher at this time of year therefore we invite the Bolwarra Public School community to assist by collecting non perishable goods including food, drinks, toiletries, cleaning products or pet supplies. These items can be dropped into the office ready for collection and delivery to the Samaritans office in East Maitland to distribute to our local families finding it a little tough this year.
