Looking for unused diaries/stationery for Tonga Schools

Durba from Mount Eden

Kia Ora,
Due to the tsunami, volcanic eruption and fall-out of ash that has destroyed 300 homes across the islands of the Kingdom of Tonga, Co-chair of the Aotearoa Tonga Relief Committee MP Jenny Salesa has made a personal appeal to Oneness-Heart-Tears and Smiles to collect stationery for the children of these households.

Jenny has outlined eight Government Primary Schools (GPS) severely affected by the volcanic eruption and tsunami: GPS Kolomotu'a, GPS 'Atata, GPS Kanokupolu, GPS Mango Island, GPS Kotu, GPS Fonoifua, GPS Tunga and GPS Nomuka.

Here is a list of other stationery items that would be most helpful:
• Unused diaries;
• Notebooks / paper, drawing paper;
• Pens, pencils, colour pencil, pencil sharpener / and or crayons, eraser;
• Children’s books of any kind;

If your workplace have any unused diaries and/or stationery to donate, we would be more than happy to come and collect it from you anytime before Monday 11 April. Shipment is scheduled to leave for Tonga on Wed 13th April.

Please do not hesitate to contact Durba 0220 653 719 should you have any questions or need further information. You can also drop off at 20 Kelston St New Lynn. Thank you.

Yours sincerely
Durba Lee
Coordinator

Tidying the house before going to bed each night, meditating upon waking or taking the stairs at work.

What’s something quick, or easy, that you started doing that made a major positive change in your life?

What word sums up 2024, neighbours?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

If 2020 was the year of lockdowns, banana bread, and WFH (work from home)....

In one word, how would you define 2024?

We're excited to see what you come up with!
