PRIMARY schools are being urged to look afresh at the Christmas message with free activity packs provided by the Archbishop of York’s online giving charity, Acts 435.

Pupils can decorate an Acts 435 Christmas tree with cut out baubles containing messages such as “Help! No coat for winter”, and “Help! Washing machine broken” to raise awareness of those living in poverty in the UK.

To request a pack, which also contains other resources for decorating the tree in school or for taking a bauble home, email admin@acts435.org.uk
