SLEEP AT THE 'G

Thursday May 15

To the LHS community, thank you so much for your support of the LHS Sleepy Snoozers team who went to the MCG to spend a night in the elements in support of homeless youth.

Having to spend the night on concrete with a mat and sleeping bag and no warm shower to start your day gave us all an insight into the daily lives of the homeless.

The Lord Mayor, Nicholas Reece, who spoke at the opening, has made it part of his goal to have zero homelessness in Melbourne. This event is part of that plan, and the total raised through the MCG Sleepout is currently at $624,000.

We were very appreciative of the donations from across our community in support of the LHS team. We have exceeded the target amount by quite a few hundred dollars!

From Year 12 students Avril, Cooper, and Jed - thank you! The messages of encouragement were greatly appreciated.

Finally, a huge THANK YOU to Mr Huby, who was instrumental in organising the team.
