Richard Cunningham, Executive Headteacher of St Peter’s Catholic Primary School, Waterlooville writes:
Well done to the pupils of St Peter’s who collected over 300 Easter Eggs to donate to Stella Maris.  The charity visits seafarers in the ports of Portsmouth and Southampton to offer those far from home an Easter chocolate gift along with religious artefacts to support them in their faith.  Current global conflicts have added even more risk to the work of seafarers in certain global waterways, so our support and prayers are needed more than ever for the seafarers who keep our supermarket shelves stocked and our consumer items in supply.
Thank you to all the families and staff who donated Easter Eggs for this great cause.
