United Kingdom Thalassemia Society, St. Andrew the Apostle School
The School Council was visited by representatives of the United Kingdom Thalassaemia Society. The representatives, Romaine Maharaj and Cllr Stephanos Ioannou came to thank our students for raising money for their charity and to explain what the students needed to know about Thalassaemia. Below is an account of the visit from one of Year 7 students. “When we gave the Thalassaemia group their cheque we discussed all the issues with today’s society including how there aren’t enough people supporting charities that are trying to raise awareness. The representatives Romaine Maharaj and Cllr Stephanos Ioannou, were extremely pleased with the amount of money our school had raised and we agreed to do another event to support a different charity in the future.”
