Our wonderful Food + Casserole Bank is in need of donations!

For those who are new to the school, our food + casserole bank functions to help out families in our community who are going through a difficult time such as family illness, additional stressors or for families who need some extra support on a regular basis.

We are in need of the following:

Meals for our casserole bank. If you are interested in helping out as a once off or on a regular basis to make meals that are able to be frozen please let me know and I’ll send you some more info!

Grocery items- this can be anything with a long shelf life. Cereals and snacks for lunchboxes or items that can be put together for an easy dinner are some of the most helpful items.

Self Care items- toiletry items, etc.

If you are interested in cooking a meal or going in to a roster to donate meals throughout the year, please contact me either via messenger or 0425 114 866
