Three Good Reasons to Support This Campaign!

 Phones collected help raise funds to keep the Starship National Air Ambulance Service flying.

 Phones collected are counted towards our schools chosen rewards from the Starship Mobile Phone Schools Campaign i.e. cameras, sports packs, i-pads and book vouchers.

 Campaign helps to ensure NZ landfills are free of an array of hazardous toxic substances.

In just five years the Starship Mobile Phone Appeal has raised close to two and half million dollars to keep the Starship National Air Ambulance Service flying. Schools have participated by collecting unwanted mobile phones and swapping them for a wide range of rewards whilst at the same time raising funds for this worthy cause.

The campaign works like this: Most of us have old mobile phones lying around at home somewhere. We ask that each family in our school come on board and donate any unwanted old mobile phones.  Not only does every phone count towards our school’s preferred reward but they also help fund the Starship National Air Ambulance whilst also serving as a valuable recycling initiative.

Please drop phones in the collection box at the main school office.
