St Vincent de Paul Christmas Food Donations
Each year our St Benedict’s school community donates non-perishable food to our parish St Vincent de Paul Conference. This food is then made into Christmas hampers that are distributed to people in our local community who are experiencing hardship. Parents are encouraged to talk with their children about the joy of giving without the expectation of receiving something in return. Families are welcome to donate as many non-perishable food items as they wish.  Please send all non-perishable food donations to your child’s classroom over the next 3 weeks. These will be presented at our Giving Mass this Friday 4th December.

We are also seeking donations of rolls of wrapping paper to decorate the hamper boxes.

Community Meals Program: HELP NEEDED!

The Community Meals Program freezer is one way we can assist families who are experiencing hardship. We are seeking donations of frozen meals (homemade or store bought), frozen food and non-perishable food donations. If making homemade meals, please ensure that they are in a disposable container clearly labelled with the date made and ingredients. All donations can be brought to the Front Office. If your family requires temporary meal assistance, you can speak in confidence to any of our staff members.

Thank you so much to those who have made donations to this service. Your support is greatly appreciated!

School Mass
Thank you to 3/4 Blue for leading our school Mass with Fr Dan and Fr Rem lastFriday. We are grateful for the opportunities we have had to ‘gather’ together to pray- even if right now it looks a little different!
