Winter Sleepout 2024

The Winter Sleepout is fast approaching. It will occur on Friday, 23 August, the same day as Comfy Clothes Day. Students from all levels are encouraged to come and join in the activities, such as games, roasting marshmallows, movie night and a whole lot more. Students can sleep in a 2-person tent or the gym. Our focus is, of course, on Homelessness in Australia. A $10 entry fee must be paid to Ms Douglass before the evening, and participants are encouraged to get family and friends to sponsor their effort. A donation link is below.

The number of participants will be capped at 60, so you must sign up quickly to avoid losing a spot. This will also generate the permission letter on PAM. The sign-up sheet is located in the Resource Centre, on the glass window outside my office.

Comfy Clothes Day

On Friday, 23 August, Vinnies will also hold a  Comfy Clothes Day to raise funds for Beyond Blue. Wearing appropriate casual, comfy clothes will cost $3, which will be collected in the morning Pastoral. Please support this new initiative and be comfortable for the day!
