Horsham Primary School students have chosen to forgo Christmas gifts in favour of supporting a group in need.
The school’s year three and four students decided to donate money to a charity rather than participate in Kris Kringle this year.
Teacher Kerrie Nolan said the concept was a success.
“Instead of the kids doing Kris Kringle, where they spend $5 on another student, this year we decided to donate the money instead and reinvigorate the meaning of Christmas,” she said.
