Emanuel School Oz Harvest Food Drive
Too Many Kids Without Breakfast – FINAL WEEK!
Next week, Year 7 will be visiting Oz Harvest to better understand how they help with Tikkun Olam (Repairing the World). To say thanks and express our support, we have been running a dry food collection down at Waxman gate during Weeks 5-8. Thanks to those who have already dropped off some goodies!
This is our final week!

What should you bring?
Oz Harvest has told us that a main focus for us could be to help children who often do not get breakfast or a decent lunch. They suggested:
- Breakfast: Milo and milk mixes are very popular, cereals, jams and spreads (vegemite and honey), biscuits like SAOs
- Lunch: Two minute noodles are top of the list, tinned meals (spaghetti, beans), anything that can quickly be heated that is non-perishable.
Other items gratefully accepted are:
- Pasta, rice, whole grain cereal
- Canned vegetables (ring pull)
- Canned fruit (ring pull)
- Canned protein foods like tuna, salmon, chicken, beef stews – (ring pull)
- Biscuits (sweet and savoury)
- Long life juice/poppers
- Dried fruits
- Tea/coffee
We appreciate it very much – as will they!
There will be boxes for your lovely donations on Waxman Drive by the main gate until Monday next week!
Thank you and Shabbat Shalom
