St Vinnies Winter Appeal 2020
I am so grateful to be part of the St Monica’s school community, a community who is truly growing together. As the Year 6 Social Justice Team collected donations over the past week it is evident that we are a community who always thinks and acts for the good of those in need. It is especially humbling to see the mountain of donations of new socks, beanies, blankets, scarves, gloves and even jackets. Humbling because each of you, the beautiful families that make up our school community, are navigating the current pandemic the best you can. Even though each of your experiences are varied, you have recognised that there are those in our community who are doing it tougher and have acted generously.
The adult donations will be going to the Night Van and they will be given to the homeless adults in the Queanbeyan and Canberra areas. The child donations will be delivered to our local branch of St Vincent de Paul.
On behalf of the Social Justice Team, I want to say a HUGE THANK YOU!
Blessings to you all for a safe, relaxing and happy break.
