CHILDREN at Tavistock's St Peter's and St Rumon's primary schools were busy wrapping shoe boxes in decorative Christmas paper and filling them with goodies recently for the Mustard Seed Relief Mission's Love in a Box project.

The boxes are filled with presents and humanitarian aids for refugee orphans mainly in Romania, Moldova and Ukraine.

The schools filled a total of 88 boxes with toys, soaps, flannels, hairbrushes and various other goodies, which will be sent to the orphans by the Christian charity.

Pictured are some of the St Peter's pupils holding their boxes.
