St. Brendan's Winter Woollies Appeal for St. Vincent de Paul

Grateful Thanks to ALL the students and their families who have already started handing in DONATIONS for our WINTER WOOLLIES APPEAL for St Vincent DePaul. 

Last week I spoke to Marina from St Vincent de Paul, Shepparton.  She is thrilled about our continued support this year for the homeless and poor.  Next week we hope to present Marina with all our WINTER WOOLLIES which she is looking forward to receiving and thank us for.

Each of us has the power to make a positive difference to the world we live in and the lives of others. In your neighborhood and community, there are many reasons to help. Through partnering with the St Vincent de Paul Society for this year’s Winter Appeal you will enable Vinnies to continue providing vital services to those in need and supporting people just like us to have a brighter future. 

Thank you and Please KEEP THE DONATIONS COMING IN.

All donations are greatly appreciated and can be dropped off by your child in their class office buckets or directly to the office.

200 Years of Catholic Education in Australia

This year we celebrate 200 years of Catholic education in Australia and to commemorate this special occasion each fortnight the students and teachers at St Brendan’s (200 combined) will be asked to share their learning or teaching journey in Catholic Education.  In Father Rob’s National song for Catholic Education, ‘Faith in the Future’, there is a verse that mentions, ‘200 reasons to sing…’. This will be the driving focus for this segment in our newsletter.  We hope you enjoy reading and learning more about why our students and teachers here at St Brendan’s and their Catholic Education journey.
