SAHSSI APPEAL

Thank you to our wonderful community for the generous donations received toward our SAHSSI womens' shelter appeal, providing toiletries and essential items for local women and children. Students and staff in our PAX and Vinnies groups work really hard to provide these opportunities to support our community.
Last week our Vinnies students decorated tote bags ready to fill with the donated items and present to the SAHSSI shelter.

VINNIES WINTER APPEAL

Thank you to our Year 12 students for coordinating our Wednesday morning hot chocolate sales to raise funds for Vinnies Winter Appeal. 
As Year 12 students will be completing their HSC trials during Weeks 3 & 4 this term, Year 11 will be taking over for the final two weeks of sales. Make sure to bring your $2 to support those in need.
We are also collecting cans of food to assist those in need, with the goal of donating 1,035 tins, roughly one per student & staff member. Currently we are around half way to achieving our goal and request for cans to be donated and handed to PALS teachers.
There are many families within our local community doing it tough this Winter, please assist if you can.
