GRANDPARENT'S AND SPECIAL FRIEND'S DAY

 

Grandparent's and special friend's day is a special time on our calendar where we celebrate these people in our lives. It is a great opportunity for them to join us in our classrooms and spend some time participating in a shared lunch, some fun activities and a prayer service.

 

SOCIAL JUSTICE AT HOLY NAME

 

This term, one of our social justice activities will be linked to our science inquiry theme of sustainability. We are calling all students and families to collect and recycle all PLASTIC bread tags by bringing them in to school and putting them into the container in your classroom.

For more information see the below website

Mary Honeybun started Bread Tags for Wheelchairs in South Africa in 2006.

Retiring from nursing, she wanted to help others and was also passionate about the environment. Mary was aware that the majority of people in need of wheelchairs in South Africa were unable to afford to buy their own.

 

She came up with the idea of recycling plastic to raise funds to buy wheelchairs and found a plastic moulding company prepared to take bread tags.
