Toys Appeal
This year St Vincent de Paul will be bringing some Christmas joy to disadvantaged children aged between 6 and 12 years of age. It would be wonderful if you could support this appeal by sending a gift into school. There will be roughly 80 - 100 children attending. No need to wrap because they will be sorted and personally hand-picked.
Please remember the cut off date for donations is Tuesday, 10 December.
Some toy ideas…
- Lego
- Movie/DVD
- Science Workshop

- Sports equipment
- Board games
- Action hero toys
- Dress ups

Social Justice Day
Our Year 5 leaders will be participating in a Social Justice Day at the Australian Catholic University on Friday, 22 November. It will be a great opportunity to learn about how the different operations within St Vincent de Paul support our local community and to learn about what happens behind the scenes. We wish them a great day and thank you, Mr Macintyre, for taking the children along.
Prayers Please
Please keep Gianna, Matteo and their family in your prayers and their great grandfather recently passed away.
