UNICEF Campaign
On Friday October 24th / or Monday October 27th, your child (K-5) will be taking home a collection envelope for UNICEF. At our Celebrate assemblies students were shown a DVD on how their support can help children in the African villages of Malawi and Rwanda receive an education and help in their future.
This UNICEF campaign promotes global awareness and citizenship issues FHS supports and believes are important.
If you are able to help in this meaningful campaign please collect pledges and return the pledge envelope to your child's teacher.
Thank you Forest Hills community.
