This week we began our new Mini Vinnies group for 2021. About 30 students Stage 3 came to this first meeting today and are very keen to begin making a difference to our school and local community. At the next meeting students will elect a President, a Vice President, a Secretary and a Media Officer. The aim of Mini Vinnies is to empower students to become advocates within their school and local community by putting their values into action. Mini Vinnies will meet every fortnight to learn about social justice issues, develop their leadership skills and engage with the wider St Vincent de Paul Society.
This week is Catholic Schools Week. Year 6 students have been running lunch time discos for a coin donation, with all money raised going towards Project Compassion. All students have had such fun participating in the disco, with Stage 2 still to celebrate their day tomorrow. Congratulations go to Year 6 for being excellent citizens in helping to raise money.
