Living the Gospel
Socktober Day is this Friday!
This October is Mission Month and our school will be hosting ‘Socktober’ THIS Friday the 28th of October. This is an event that is run by Catholic Mission and many schools around Australia are participating. The main focus this year is to raise money to help Ethiopian families suffering from food shortages and malnourishment. All students are welcome to wear free-dress in exchange for a gold coin donation. The theme is to wear crazy socks and/or soccer gear. There will be fun events throughout the day such as a soccer shootout and teachers vs students soccer game. $5 dollars will be raised every time a goal is scored in the game. Our goal is to raise $432 dollars. We hope you will join us in supporting this wonderful cause for Mission Month this October!
For anyone wishing to make a contribution to this worthy cause prior to Friday, please do so via this link.
