Anglicare Pantry Appeal

Our service partners at St John’s Care continue to meet the needs of Canberrans. Their services are in great demand.

St John’s Care aims to bridge the gap and break the cycle of disadvantage, isolation, and economic hardship with compassion, advocacy, respect, and encouragement through the provision of emergency relief and other programs.

Students in the Junior and Secondary Schools regularly visit St John’s Care to hear about their work, stack the shelves, play music, and serve at the community lunches.

In Week 1 and Week 2 of Term 3 we are hosting a whole-College pantry appeal

Bring your donations to:

Junior School

• Junior School reception
• ELC reception
• 5/6 reception

Secondary School

• Well-being reception

Non-Uniform Day

There will be a non-uniform day with a Christmas in July theme on Thursday, 27 July (Year 1) and Friday, 28 July (Pre-K, Kinder and Year 2 – Year 12).

Students and staff are invited to wear something Christmassy or their winter woollies and bring in an extra donation from the Anglicare Pantry Appeal shopping list.
