There are only 3 more days to shop up a storm and upload those receipts for our chance to win up to $25,000! Don't forget to have everything uploaded by 5pm on Sunday.

If you need more ideas for ways to spend - Big W have their toy sale on at the moment, with no deposit layby - stock up for Christmas now and support your school! Quest Apartments are also included - book a night or two away, buy yourself some vouchers for dinner and a movie at Reading Cinemas over the school holidays!

At the close of the leaderboard last night, we were on top, in first place! It was very close though so we need everyone to work hard over the next 3 days to keep us there.

Announcement Ceremony

Join us for the Shop For Your School announcement ceremony, wearing your SMCM uniform with pride! Pacific Epping will reveal the winning schools, present the prize cheques and celebrate our local school community.

Dates: Thursday 18 June 2026

Time: 5 - 6PM

Today we celebrated our climb up the leaderboard with another casual clothes day and our pizza party! Though the pizza wasn't hot, it sure was delicious with Pizza Shapes and Trolli Pizza Candy giving everyone a little treat at eating time!

Fingers crossed we see you all at Pacific Epping over the next couple of days! Keep sending through your pictures of Leaderboard Legends to show you Shopping for Your School.

SMC Production Excursion

Yesterday the Year 4 students were lucky enough to travel to Plenty Ranges Arts and Convention Centre in South Morang to watch the St Monica's College production of High School Musical! It was a fantastic experience and the show was outstanding. We spotted 9 former SMCM students on stage and behind the scenes. We were very proud of them and some of the Year 4s were inspired to audition for the production when they go to SMC in a couple of years!

'Their acting was really good - it was like they were actual actors!'

Huey

'My favourite part was when the teachers in the show started arguing. It was a very cool show and I liked how they acted.'

Elsa

'I liked the story of it, how they were at a school. I liked how they acted and a bit of the romance too!'
