Bridgewater parents bring joy to children overseas with Operation Christmas Child

Bridgeewater School helps Operation Christmas Child

Once again, Bridgewater parents have been going above and beyond to help bring joy to disadvantaged children in some of the poorest places in the world.

The school has become increasingly festive as we collect gift-filled shoebox donations in support of Operation Christmas Child. The project, run by the organisation Samaritan’s Purse UK, sends shoeboxes of gifts to children overseas, for whom this will often be the first Christmas gift they have ever received.

We have supported this project for the last seven years, sending over 1,300 boxes and continue to be astounded by the generosity of our school community.

Education is not just opening minds, but opening the door to opportunity and self-realisation
