CARITAS - PROJECT COMPASSION FUNDS

Thank you to those people who donated via the Holy Rosary QR code for our Big Water Walk. Many families have also collected money using the Project Compassion boxes. Please return all collection boxes to school by Friday 1st May so we can forward our schools contributions to Caritas Australia. We will announce the total funds raised once we have all boxed returned. If you haven’t donated and wish to contribute to this worthwhile cause, please do not hesitate to access our school account via the Caritas website.

SANDHURST SWITCHES OFF

We warmly invite all families to join us for Sandhurst Switches Off. By switching off lights and devices whether for one hour or even longer, we can take simple, meaningful steps to care for the beautiful earth God has entrusted to us.

In the spirit of Pope Francis’ call in Laudato Si’ to protect our common home, this small act of stewardship reminds us that every moment counts.
