THANK YOU to everyone who donated items.
Every donation makes a difference to those in need.
👏An enormous thanks to the Pastoral teachers for coordinating their Pastoral collection.
👏To Chantal in the Canteen, who created a Winter Appeal Specials menu, donating some of the profits and then matching the $, totalling $250!
👏One of our parents (Mrs Morina) donated beautiful hand-crocheted blankets and beanies. These beanies will be on sale next Wednesday at our market Day stall.
👏To the VM students, who ran a sausage sizzle to raise funds to buy food. This enabled us to spend $600 on non-perishable food items and toiletries.
👏Special mention to Nick G and his mum, as well as Ayo and his mum, for the amazingly generous donations by individual students. Both students donated more than 65 items!
👏To all of the Nazareth staff who supported and donated.
👏To all students who rose to the challenge and brought in items, making a significant difference to our local community.
👏A special mention to Mannix 1, 2 & 4 for donating in excess of 40 items per class.
The items were delivered to St Anthony's SVDP volunteer group on Friday, who will make up packages to distribute to those in need. They were incredibly grateful for our support.
A message from the SVDP Conference at Noble Park:

Winter Appeal Market Day
🩵 Heartfelt thanks to our dedicated Vinnies Team for delivering a spectacular Market Day this week. With much of the proceeds contributing to the Vinnies Winter Appeal, it was uplifting to witness our Nazareth community rally together for such a meaningful cause. Over $1,000 was raised!
A special message of gratitude goes to Ms Sarah Moore for her wonderful support of the Cake Pops Baking Team and to Mrs Melissa Morina for her beautifully crafted winter knits.
The goods made, baked, planted, and created were incredibly popular, adding to the vibrant atmosphere as we wrap up Term 2.
