| What can we improve on this week: | Actions | |
| Sports shed | A reminder that there should only be 2 senior students in the sports shed - according to the House roster. It is the responsibility of all the leaders to maintain the sports shed - it must be kept tidy and all the equipment returned. If someone is away then a replacement needs to be organised from the same House - not a friend. | |
| Sand pit | Sandpit toys stay in the sandpit so everyone can play with them. We need to keep the sandpit clean so no leaves, twigs, sticks rubbish. |
Project Compassion
Your generous support can help change lives today - and For All Future Generations.
More funding to Ukraine to address impacts of war on the most vulnerable
20 MAR 22
Caritas Australia welcomes the additional $30 million in emergency humanitarian funding for Ukraine announced today by the Australian Government, to focus on protecting women, children, the elderly and those living with disability.
This includes provision of $2 million for the Emergency Action Alliance, a collective of Australian-based aid organisations of which Caritas Australia is a member. It also includes $10 million under the Australian Humanitarian Partnership and brings the total humanitarian assistance package to $65 million for Ukraine.
“We welcome this much-needed funding for Ukraine, particularly for those who are extremely vulnerable to this conflict” said Kirsty Robertson, Caritas Australia’s CEO.
“We are working through local Caritas agencies on the ground who are best placed to assess where the needs are greatest. Through these agencies we have been responding to the needs of vulnerable people from the onset of this emergency, both in Ukraine and in neighbouring countries.“
“Caritas Ukraine has been directly supporting women and children crossing the border, in particular unaccompanied minors, to try to provide safe passage and prevent human trafficking. And it is not just the risk for people who are fleeing their homes to other countries. Most of the population is still left in the country, and in the eastern regions this means that millions of people are living with extremely limited access to water, food, heating, medicines, and other essentials.”
