Join Us in Spreading Joy – Gift Drive at RIS

As we approach the festive season, we are delighted to announce a heartwarming initiative organised in collaboration with our students participating in the Duke of Edinburgh Award and the RIS PTA: a Winter Toy Drive to bring smiles to children and families in need this holiday season.

We invite all students and families to participate by donating a small gift or toy, either new or in very good condition. These thoughtful contributions will support the Sant’Egidio charity, whose missions in Fiumicino and Trastevere will distribute the gifts during their annual Lunch on 25 December.

How You Can Participate:

When: Donations can be brought to school from 2 - 20 December.

Where: Place your gift under the tree on Level 2.

How: Wrap your gift or place it in a small bag with a tag indicating:

 Who the gift is from

One of the following: B (Boy), G (Girl), or X (Suitable for either).

Gift Ideas:

To help inspire your generosity, here are a few ideas:

● Small soft toys

● T-shirts

● Puzzles

● Games

● Books

● Hats and scarves

We hope this initiative not only spreads joy to those who need it most but also fosters a sense of community and giving within our school.

Thank you in advance for your support and kindness. Together, we can make this holiday season special for many children and families.
