Unwanted secondary textbooks and children’s reading books

Posted: May 20, 2016

A group of Y11 students are planning a secondhand textbook sale this year to help keep costs down for families, to recycle unwanted books and to raise money to donate either to the poor rural school in the Philippines that we supported last year or the ICM charity who work with the ultra poor in the Philippines. Both these groups need assistance due to the drought that has been brought on by El Nino – see http://www.caremin.com/our-work/disaster-fund for more details.

We invite you to support this cause and to donate your unwanted textbooks. The sale of the textbooks will be held in the last few weeks of the year – dates and times to be confirmed. We will also be happy to take donations of children’s reading/picture books that are in good condition. These will be shipped to the school to supplement their meager library. Please leave all books on the labeled tables in the front foyer of the school anytime before 6 June. Thanks in advance for your support.
