A total of 155 NCEA textbooks were donated including 87 maths, 47 science and 25 humanities textbooks. These textbooks will be donated to low decile high schools next year. If you are a student or know of anyone who would have NCEA textbooks, AME workbooks, ESA study guides, learning workbooks, StudyPass revision guides and fold-out notes, please contact me ([email protected]) as I am always accepting donations. Thank you to my friend Lucy who helped me collect these textbooks and to the students who donated! Emily.I was privileged to talk to the sixty-five Year six girls and their teachers at St Cuthbert's College. The Year six girls had started a collection of stationery, which they would donate to Samoa these coming holidays. I had been asked to give a talk to the girls about my efforts so far to collect and donate stationery and they were keen for me to help with the donation to Samoa.
I talked with them about how I came up with the idea of Paper Pens Pencils, how I executed my plan into action to collect stationery and donate them to schools and about the stationery I took to Fiji. I discussed with them how I could help them and answered all their questions about my enterprise including questions like how I managed to count all the pens I have donated (yes I count them individually), or how I know what schools to donate to (I have a long list of decile one schools that I email asking if they need any stationery). They were all really interested in what I had done and enthusiastic about donating stationery to Samoa. Once I had finished talking I could tell they were buzzing with excited energy about the prospect of donating the stationery to Samoa and making a difference to the children's lives over there. I was told afterwards I had really inspired them so they decided to keep the stationery collection going for longer and collect more stationery and ended up filling both a large suitcase and a bag. I really enjoyed showing them that even as younger students they can make a difference together. I was so glad to have helped and inspired girls with the donation to Samoa because after visiting Fiji I know how much the stationery is appreciated at our neighbouring Pacific islands and I’m sure Samoa will be very grateful for this donation. Over the past two weeks I have had a collection going at St Aidan's Anglican Church in Remuera. The response was amazing and I was overwhelmed at the generosity of the community who donated over 200 pencils, 200 pens and 3000 items of paper as well as pencil sharpeners, erasers and rulers. Thank you to those who donated and went out of their way to purchase appropriate supplies for primary school students. The kids at the decile 1 schools will be delighted to receive this stationery. Thank you so much to Glen, the Vicar, who helped make this collection at the St Aidan's Church possible. Emily.
At the end of this school year, I collected NCEA textbooks and stationery from St Cuthbert's College senior school. The collection took place over the last two weeks of term 4 and I collected over 330 NCEA textbooks and lots of stationery! The majority of the NCEA textbooks hadn't been written in and these textbooks and other resources donated will be very useful for low decile high schools to use next year. The stationery collected from St Cuthbert's College is going to be donated to Manurewa East Primary school along with other stationery that has been donated to Paper Pens Pencils. If you are a student or know of anyone who would have NCEA textbooks, AME workbooks, ESA study guides and learning workbooks and StudyPass revision guides and fold-out notes from this year or previous years please contact me ([email protected]) as I will be donating NCEA resources at the start of this year but am happy to accept donations whenever. Thank you to my friend Lucy who helped me collect these books and stationery at St Cuthbert's and thank you to the students who donated! Emily.
From the 18th September to the 22nd September I was collecting stationery in the junior school. At the end of the week I received two boxes full of stationery which was really nice to see that a lot of the kids had donated! Thank you so much to the girls in the junior school at St Cuthbert's College for all the lovely stationery donations! Emily.
