Mrs Smith received this lovely email from Victoria (Merryn’s mam). Spreading Koinonia!

I’ve received a lovely email from Mr Hayton full of love and encouragement.
So Merryn’s sent a letter of encouragement to Jellycat soft toy company to support them to make more toys for the children as they’ve helped her lots through this pandemic.

I’ve been reading quotes from a book which has been written by an author in Northumberland which I feel would really connect to the school and the children so I’ve put my name in the hat to win a copy so I can donate it to St Oswald’s and we as a family can give something back to the teachers for all the help and support you are giving the children in school.

My hope is the book will go on to help many children in the school to cope in the uncertain time’s ahead. Fingers crossed!! ( if we don’t win we would love to donate £20 to the school to buy books for the school which will help support the children in the school through this) .
