Glasgow School Teachers Collect Toys to Donate to Children

Lodged by Annie Wells Standard Motion 25 supporters

The motion

That the Parliament congratulates the staff at Pollokshields Primary School, who have traded in gifts for toy donations with the aim to give as many children as possible a present on Christmas Day; notes that the school decided to take part in the Glasgow Times Bank on Us campaign by collecting funds for the toy appeal, which will help struggling families to provide a child with a toy this Christmas; acknowledges that the teachers and support staff took the decision not to get each other presents this year and instead donate items or cash to help others have a present on Christmas day, and notes that the collection was done solely by the teachers at the school with pupils not asked to get involved.
