PEÑAFIEL PRIMARY SCHOOL WELFARE MARKET


On Wednesday January 30th, a solidarity market was held in the town of Peñafiel . This year the money raised has gone to the NGO " Peace Messengers", the Prince of Asturias Award in 1994.

What makes this market so special is that it fosters student creativity because what they sell is made ​​by all students from kindergarten to primary students. Children learn that their creative effort is in the interest of those children most in need fostering values ​​like effort, solidarity and creativity.

Serve this review in recognition of all teachers, parents and students who have worked with such enthusiasm to help the most disadvantaged, led by a management team with a strong social conscience.

As Father Angel said, founder of Messengers of Peace, "Spain has always been a country of solidarity with those most in need and currentlythey are in our own country."

Messengers of Peace now focuses on providing food, clothes and place of study to those children who lack the bare minimum to survive.

Congratulations to the children of the CRA La Villa School for giving us this beautiful example of solidarity. This is the video I made ​​on Father
Angel 's visit to this historic Centre.
