Giving Tree

Thank you to everyone who contributed to our Giving Tree. Apart from a multitude of gifts we also collected over $3400 in cash and over $1000 in gift cards. This was an amazing effort.

All of the money and gift cards will go to Vinnies, as will most of the gifts.  Some gifts will go to Woorabinda Mission in Central Queensland. There are no toy stores in Woorabinda and many families are not able to travel to bigger centres or are unable to afford gifts for their kids. The generosity of our students and staff will make Christmas a lot brighter for the children of Woorabinda and Bundaberg.

Donations for Woorabinda Mission 

Sr Cecilia would like to thank everyone for their generosity last year with the footy boots they received.  This year they are asking for more items such as, table cloths, sheets, any linen and especially footy boots.  If you could donate any of these items please drop them into Mrs Petersen's office in Student Services by Wednesday 16 November.
