Service Learning - Our Commitment to the Community

Biggest Morning Tea - in the afternoon!

We will be holding a fundraiser on Friday 31st May from 2:30pm - 3:30pm and welcome parents to come along, have a cuppa and a biscuit and donate to the Cancer Council. The service learning group will be serving inside or outside The Mercy Centre.  Cancer affects us all, with one in two Queenslanders diagnosed by the age of  85. The Cancer Council navigate cancer with Queenslanders, working to reduce risk, improve early detection and provide much-needed practical and emotional support for anyone affected by a cancer diagnosis. We encourage you to get your parents to read this week's school newsletter so they can join us on the day or by donating via our special link Australia's Biggest Morning Tea - Natalie O'Brien.

 Minni Vinnies Winter Appeal

 As winter is fast approaching, we are launching the Winter Appeal now, so that when the weather truly cools in towards the end of the term, we can donate the goods to Minni Vinnies in readiness to support those less fortunate than us. We launched this initiative at assembly, with our students standing with bags we have collected from our homes, to show we are leading by example. Donation points will be put onto our posters that will be out across the school by the end of this week. Please when you get the chance, look in your wardrobes at your winter clothes and consider donating suitable items that may no longer fit your family, in addition to any spare blankets, etc. Even if it is just one item, that is one item that someone wouldn't have if it wasn't for you.
