Kids share warm feeling with others as day spent in pyjamas

Students and staff of St Matthew's School spent last Thursday rugged up in their winter pyjamas.

Principal Susan Milton said it was an opportunity for them not only to be comfortable, but more importantly to take some time to appreciate how lucky they all are to have warm clothing this winter.

“Families were invited to donate winter items such as blankets, pyjamas, socks, jumpers, tracksuits,” she said.

“These items were donated to Divine You and St Vincent de Paul to be distributed to those in need.

“Staff were delighted at the number of donations that were received.

“Many families donated more than one item, and some even purchased new blankets, jackets, pyjamas and dressing gowns to donate.”
