ST PIUS X COLLEGE CHRISTMAS APPEALS - PLEASE GIVE GENEROUSLY!​

The Christmas Giving Tree (coordinated by Year 7)

The Christmas Hamper Appeal (coordinated by Year 9)

The St Pius X College Christmas Giving Tree

Dear Parents and Carers,

Year 7 students have the special responsibility each year to run our St Pius X Christmas Giving Tree Charity event.  Every year ALL students from Years 5 to 11 are asked to bring in Christmas gifts for our Giving Tree.  In the spirit of Christmas giving, these gifts are taken to underprivileged communities at Bowraville and Walgett, and given to indigenous children.

As such we are asking for your help in helping those less fortunate in our communities. We truly hope every student will contribute.  

We are asking for wrapped gifts labelled for a boy or girl .

Please indicate the age group:  5-7;   8-10; 1 1-13.

We are also asking that the boys themselves, if possible, raid their own savings to buy these gifts so they feel like they are actually contributing.

We pray that our young indigenous brothers and sisters may know the hope and joy that is what this season of Advent and Christmas is all about.

With thanks.

Mr J Lynch - Year 7 Coordinator

The St Pius X College Christmas Hamper Appeal

Next Monday 26 November marks the beginning of our two week Christmas Hamper Appeal where we will be collecting and assembling hampers to be delivered to St Anthony’s Parish in Terry Hills. These hampers will be joining the rest of St Anthony’s Parish hampers which will be delivered to Catholic Care and Burdiken.

This appeal is being coordinated by Year 9 and students will be coming around to all homerooms on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday for the next fortnight to collect non-perishable Christmas food for the hampers.  A hamper will also be placed in the foyer where you can donate.  Please give generously.
