Well done to Murroe N.S. who collected 74 boxes to be sent to the children in Africa and Eastern Europe. The children who receive the shoeboxes are affected by poverty in different ways. It is great to see big numbers of shoeboxes being filled by the boys and girls. It makes a big difference in the lives of the children who receive them on Christmas morning!
