2023 Senior P&F Easter Raffle

The popular Senior P&F Easter Raffle is an event favourite for students who enjoy the excitement of the raffle draw and a chance to win a prize bursting with chocolate treats.

To assist with the Easter Raffle, the Senior P&F are seeking chocolate donations from students (one per family).

Donations can include all types of chocolate (white, milk, dark, bars, blocks, Easter favourites) and can be delivered to the school office at Austins Ferry.

As the College is a nut-aware school, we request that all donations stay wrapped and are handed into the office as soon as your son is at school. Raffle winners should be aware that prizes may contain nuts.

More information will be available next week via the St Virgil's Collegee Facebook page and EdSmart email communications.
