Sydney Vinnies Brekky Van

 

We have completed our final Sydney Vinnies Brekky Van shift for 2023. A heartfelt thank you to all those who volunteered their time to provide a hand up to those in need. I am confident it has been a humbling and rewarding experience for those who have participated and it is a very practical way to contribute to social outreach. I will publish the dates for the Sydney Vinnies Brekky Van in early 2024. There is quite an amount of documentation to complete, so once the dates are published, if you would like to participate, please register at your earliest. Existing volunteers - you are welcome to return in 2024. Thank you.

Kindergarten 2024 keyrings

 

A heartfelt Thank you to Leisha (Jacob Lay in Year 5’s Mum), who helped make the Sacramental keyrings for our Kindergarten class of 2024. The Year 5 Buddy’s will gift them, together with a poem to their Kindy Buddy on the second Orientation day this Thursday 16th November, 2023.

 

Expression of Interest - Journey to Bethlehem

 

This month the live action Christmas adventure 'Journey to Bethlehem' launches at cinemas across Australia. It is a family friendly musical (think Joseph and the Amazing technicolour dreamcoat) movie that tells the story of the Nativity starring Antonio Banderas as King Herod.  If there are any families who may be  interested in going as a group to watch the movie on Saturday 9th December, 2023, please complete the FORM so that I can determine whether this is an initiative worth investigating further and  pursuing. Thank you.
