Nova students support homeless charity
Charitable, kindness and community are just a few of the words we use to describe our students. These were demonstrated by a number of Y7-Y10 students who volunteered their time this term to cook after school for those less fortunate.
The Pegasus house charity for this year is Alternative Angels, a support group that supply the homeless people of Swindon with hot meals and other items that they may need to get them through the hard times that they experience.
Staff and students at Nova Hreod donated enough ingredients to make 17 delicious homemade pizzas and 9 pasta dishes. Students cooked on Monday 2nd December so that we could donate food for Alternative Angels to serve at the Wyvern Theatre car park which takes place every Monday.
The pizzas went down very well and the people receiving them were extremely grateful. Some even said that "it was the best meal they'd had all year!"
Throughout the year there will be a number of fundraising opportunities run by Pegasus house to support this charity as homelessness is an issue that could affect anyone. Epraise points can be donated and any money raised will be used to purchase items from the charity’s Amazon wish list such as coats, sleeping bags, socks and dried store food.
We aim to do as much as we can to help and will be cooking again over the next few terms.
