NOTE-WRITING TIPS

• Keep your note simple and within one page. Often simple messages mean the most.
• Remember that refugees come from a variety of backgrounds and aren’t refugees forever. Don’t assume anything about their faith or culture. Keep it light and focus on encouragement and support.
• Avoid writing ‘welcome to Australia’ because some kids might have been in Australia for a while already.
• Presume they speak English; most of the kids we support are bilingual or trilingual!
• Create as many notes as you like, and encourage others to get involved. We have hundreds of kids we want to reach.
• Have fun! Feel free to decorate your note or add pictures to it. The brighter, the better!
