COATS & JACKET - OFF YOUR BACK THANKS!
Heartfelt thanks to Cettina (Parent of Joseph in Year 2/3) who dropped off all the coat donations we had today to the charity Off Your Back!
Thank you also to the SRT who helped count and sort all the coats for those in need yesterday. We had a total of 42 coats to give to those in need, many of those for children - well done and thank you to everyone!
It was a simple way we could help others in our local and wider community.
It meant our students got to be part of social justice in action and make a real difference for others.
Wellbeing and Meal Support
We have a small team of families, who from time to time make a simple meal for others in our school community that may be in need. We then pass meals on anonymously to those in our community who are in need for a variety of reasons.
If you are able to assist with this on a one off basis or from time to time, please let me know or send me an email: kharris@shpreston.catholic.edu.au
Additionally, if you or any family you are aware of in our community that could use this support please let myself or Antoniette know.
FOOD BANK Victoria supplies and distributes food to many people and charities across Melbourne and Victoria.
There is a donation box in the office area to collect any non perishable staples and I will drop off to the centre in a few weeks if you are able to make a small contribution.
