Charitable Works Fund ‘Crazy Hair Day’ fundraiser, Friday 19th September
Each year, Sydney Catholic Schools supports the Charitable Works Fund (CWF) by inviting all students to take part in a fundraising event, reflecting the charitable spirit of St Mary of the Cross MacKillop. This year we are holding a ‘Crazy Hair Day’ CWF fundraising event. Students are invited to wear mufti clothing and a crazy hair-do on Friday, 19th of September in exchange for a gold coin donation to the Charitable Works Fund via QKR. Donations can be made up until midnight on Friday, 19th of September. We thank you for your continued support.
St Vincent de Paul Snack Packs
In the coming weeks, Sacred Heart students participating in the Year Six Pope Francis Award Program will be assembling snack packs to contribute to the Vinnies Vans Services. We ask for your support with this initiative, by donating single packaged items from the list below. If you are able to donate any of the following items, please send them to school by Thursday, 18th of September. Collection tubs will be left in the school foyer and in the school office. If you are donating an item out of the pantry, please double check the used-by date. We thank you for your generosity and support of our Pope Francis Award outreach initiatives.
Sacrament of the Eucharist
We continue to keep the First Holy Communion candidates in our prayers as they prepare to make this very special sacrament.
