Italian Day

Italian Day is coming up in week 4, Wednesday 2nd August 2023.

Titled, ‘Vacanze Romane’.  A day filled with everything we love about Italy. 

The children will be able to dress up in the Italian colours or anything they love that represents Italy. Get your costumes ready for a day of fun. Divertiamoci!

 

Pyjama Day

Friday 28th of July is Galilee’s Pyjama Day where students can come to school dressed in their pyjamas. Sometimes spending the day in our pjs is just what we need! 

 

Let’s cosy up in our pyjamas with a good book and raise money to boost our library whilst also supporting literacy programs in the most disadvantaged schools in Australia. Together with Dymocks Children’s Charities we will be working to restock primary school libraries and other important support centres with brand new books of choice. 

 

Every dollar we raise will provide brand-new books for our school, as well as for a school in need. Therefore, if we raise $400, our school can choose $400 worth of books, and a school in need will also receive $400 worth of books. How cool is that!!!

 

How can you contribute? 

 

Galilee will have a personalised fundraising page that will be shared with families and you can also bring in cash donations, big or small! 

 

Why have we chosen this fundraiser? 

1 in 6 Australian children and young people are living in poverty. These children often do not have access to good books, either at school or at home. The Dymocks Children’s Charities mission is to ensure that all children have access to good books, regardless of their circumstances.

 

What can a boost do for a school in need?
