‘Hearts of Hope’ Makes Its First Delivery to Sydney Children’s Hospital!
During the school holidays, we proudly delivered our first 100 Hearts of Hope to the Sydney Children’s Hospital in Randwick. These hearts were lovingly prepared for families and children in the long-term and palliative care units, each one accompanied by a heartfelt message of love and prayer from our St Anthony’s community.
Mary and Maya Cantrill (Year 1) were on hand to personally deliver the hearts to Jessica Cooper, the hospital’s Community Relations Officer, who expressed deep gratitude for our community’s beautiful gesture of care and compassion.
If you’d like to help sew more hearts, I warmly invite you to join me: Monday mornings from 9am in the library or Friday mornings from 9am in the staff room.
No need to RSVP, just pop in. Whether you sew one heart or ten, your support will be deeply appreciated. 💖
