MY SCHOOL'S CHARITY EVENTS

Greg Jones, October 18

At my school we have a charity event every year. We raise money for the local soup kitchens and charity. Charity events are hard work, but they're fun, too!

Each class holds a different event. Last month, my sister's class had a talent show, and my class had a bake sale. We organized a bake sale because we learned how to make cakes in our cooking lessons. Everyone baked cakes at home then brought them to the school playground to sell. We sold lots of cakes and cookies and raised 85 dollars, so everyone was very happy!

Last year, we joined a fun run in the park. My class all ran or walked for 3 kilometers. We were all very tired, but we raised more money than this year. Maybe we will run again next year.
