Each backpack contained the school materials needed for the start of the new term. Special thanks go to the Peace and Harmony Masonic Lodge, Charles & Maggie for collecting funds & materials, individual members of the Silves Rotary Club and kind members of the public. The children were delighted to receive their filled, colourful backpacks.
