Pomare kids benefit from Do Some Good
Let's Do Some Good is proving a hit with pupils at Pomare School.
The school in Taita is one of 12 kōhanga reo, kindergartens and schools in the Wellington region benefiting from the Do Some Good programme run by the Vulnerable Support Charitable Trust, a charity focused on helping young people in difficult situations.
Principal Cilla Scott said that it is not uncommon to have more than 20 kids turn up with no lunch.
Scott said that while there is no formal requirement for her school to provide food for students, offering simple meals helps fend off much more serious problems, like absenteeism.
