Vinnies Christmas Appeal
“A Christmas without joy, is no Christmas at all”.
“Help Australians living in poverty this Christmas, make a gift today”.
St Vinnies Cranbourne is one of the most in demand Vinnies organisations in Australia, in regards to numbers of families and individuals who are asking for help.
St. Peter’s College each year supports the St Vinnie's Christmas Appeal by collecting and donating items that the students and their families think families would enjoy having on Christmas day.
“Every year my family has participated in this appeal, and not only does it bring joy to us as a family - but brings hope and joy to those who are more disadvantaged than us”.
St Francis of Assisi said that "it is in giving that we receive".
St. Peter’s College has a very strong Social Justice Program from Year 7 right through to Year 12 for our students and in turn our families and community.
“We all have the capacity to give and we are asking all families in our college community to support the appeal by placing their gifts under the house Christmas trees in each house at the school. Food items such as Plum puddings, Christmas Cakes, sweet biscuits, soft drinks and lollies, which would all bring a smile on someone's face who is less fortunate than ourselves. An unwrapped child's gift would also be greatly appreciated under our giving tree and in turn by those who may otherwise not receive a gift on Christmas morning”.
All our food items and gifts are presented at our College Advent Mass on the 6th of December.
“In closing I ask our Staff, Students, their families and the community at large, that when you shop over the next couple of weeks, please remember those who are less fortunate than ourselves and how we all can bring joy and hope to their Christmas.
Donations can be brought to Reception at either the St. Peter’s College West Campus in Cranbourne or East Campus in Clyde North, where a Christmas giving Tree has been set up.
