Socktober: Putting Faith into Action
In RE, Students have been learning about the Catholic Social Teaching of "Preferential Option for the Poor." Our children had fun wearing their crazy socks to school to support communities throughout the world in need of extra support. Enjoy the photos.
Socktober is an annual fundraiser for Catholic Mission who support communities such as Yamikani's from Malawi. This year's funds will go to projects like the one in Malawi. Yamikani who suffers from a condition that makes it painful for him to travel to school will soon be able to access safe education closer to his home.
St Mary's children also made soccer balls made from old socks, t-shirts and used plastic bags. It was a reminder of how children live and play in other parts of the world.
