NAIDOC Week
During the holidays we will celebrate NAIDOC Week. The 2024 theme is “Keep the Fire Burning! Blak, Loud and Proud”. This theme was selected to celebrate the relentless spirit of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities. Year 6 Students will attend the NAIDOC Mass next term in Tumut.
Winter Woollies
On Wednesday 3rd July, St Joseph’s will be holding a ‘Winter Woollies Day’ to support the St Vincent De Paul Society’s fundraiser ‘Vinnies Winter Appeal’.
The Vinnies Winter Appeal is all about providing emergency relief to those at risk of/or experiencing homelessness. Vinnies would appreciate donations of ‘Winter Woollies’ such as gloves, socks, jackets, beanies, blankets or sleeping bags. All donations are then distributed through the homelessness and community services to directly support those who are most impacted. If you would like to donate, please send any ‘Winter Woollies’ to the front office by Wednesday 3rd July. Any donations are greatly appreciated.
Students are invited to wear their ‘Winter Woollies’ (dressing gown, pyjamas, jacket, tracksuit pants, jumper, long socks, beanie, scarf etc) to school on Wednesday 3rd July to support the Winter Appeal.
