Vinnie’s Winter Appeal
“The society of St Vincent de Paul is an international voluntary organisation in the Catholic Church, founded in 1833 for the sanctification of its members by personal service of the poor… Vinnie’s winter appeal aims to provide emergency relief to people at risk and experiencing homelessness,” (wikipedia.org).
As Catholic people, we aim to follow in the footsteps of such saints as St. Vincent De Paul who is canonised by the catholic church for preaching missions to the peasantry and for running charitable events to assist the poor.
This year, over a 4-week period, we ask for your assistance in the collection of various items that will be donated to assist the homeless and those less fortunate than we are.
Please see attached flyer for further information. We thank you in advance for your generosity.
Lunch Order Day
With the last food order day being such a HUGE success, Rose Piotti and her P&F team have decided to run another one on Wednesday 15th June. This time (Don’s) HOT DOGS and (Coles) CUPCAKES will be for sale. Orders and payment is now open on QuickCliq – so be sure to get your order in!
Remember, these days run smoothly when we have a team of parents willing to assist with service – so if you are available to help Rose, please contact her at rosemary4@iprimus.com.au Many thanks for your support!
*Important information from the principal, deputy principal and P&F: Parents, please note that food order days are a P&F fundraising activity, and we work hard to ensure that you are given enough time to place an order for your children. We kindly ask that if you miss the cut-off date to place your child’s order that you DO NOT bring in any FAST FOOD. Instead, you could consider placing a ‘special lunch’ in your child’s lunchbox as an alternative. We thank-you for your understanding in this matter.
RAFFLE - St. Fidelis Pizza/Pasta Night
