Volunteering Canterbury This year, learners at Rolleston College celebrated Student Volunteer Week by working with Volunteering Canterbury to support the work of NICU Cuddle Hearts, a Selwyn-based project founded by Lisa Paget to support vulnerable babies in NICU.
If you would like to support the ongoing work of these students, donations of 100 percent cotton fabric to the school office would be appreciated. Selwyn Libraries also have packs of fabric and patterns available to the public to sew in their own time at home.
The learners learnt how to cut, sew, and finish the cuddle hearts.
