Over the last couple of months, Theo has been asking his family to help people. Donating money and food wasn't enough - he wanted to actively help someone. After a lot of persistence from Theo, they headed into the city to Volunteer with The Humble Mission - a volunteer network who established themselves providing emergency food relief during covid lockdowns.

 Standing under a bridge with a few trestle tables of food ready to be distributed, Theo confidently began handing out food (including his private stash of lollies) to the many people waiting in line. He held conversations, danced making people smile and laugh, helped make signage and made sure everyone followed the rules. 

At the end of the service, his parents were expecting a whole lot of questions about some of the things they saw while they were there, but his only two questions were - 

Why did some people not want to talk - are they sad? 

When can we do it again? 

Theo showed a huge amount of compassion and empathy to all the people he met that day; what a way to live out the St Mary's way. 

CONGRATULATIONS!

Well done to Bridey who had a big weekend of gymnastics and received a medal for all her hard work this year.
