Dromintee Primary School adopted Ellen for a day and held an awareness raising day for her. We raised funds for ‘Ellen’s Journey’ through a non-uniform day. In spite of having fewer than 200 pupils, the school raised an amazing £929. The generosity of the wider school community is greatly appreciated. The children wrote letters and made cards for Ellen to show their support and empathy.
Charitable activities are important to develop a sense of citizenship – in terms of individual engagement, participation in collective school activities, and engendering a broader sense of social responsibility. Dromintee Primary School pupils have certainly demonstrated this is a strength!
