On Wednesday, 5th February, the college had the privilege of hosting the Million Meal Miracle, a charitable initiative dedicated to combating global hunger. The event saw Year 8 students roll up their sleeves and work alongside volunteers to pack over 7,000 meals.
The meals, which will be sent to trusted partners in Zimbabwe and Somaliland, aim to provide essential warm meals for children in schools and orphanages.
The Million Meal Miracle project is on a mission to engage 200 schools in meal-packing events to address the critical issue of hunger faced by children around the world. As part of an assembly, representatives from the project educated our students about the ongoing global hunger challenges, highlighting the struggles that children their age are facing in other parts of the world.
In addition to the hands-on experience, the event provided our students with an important lesson on the significance of charitable work and the global issues that affect millions. The event was generously sponsored by Rotary St Helens, whose support made the day possible.
The experience aims not only to contribute to the fight against hunger but also to help our students develop a greater awareness of the impact they can have on the world. With a new found understanding of global issues, our students are now better equipped to take part in future charitable endeavors and make a positive difference in the world
