On Friday 4 December we were extremely proud to hand over 27 Christmas hampers and two billy carts to the St Vincent de Paul Society to distribute to families within our local community who, at this special time of year, are doing it ‘tough’.
St Vincent de Paul is always available for any family who needs assistance. We are extremely proud, and blessed, to help them with your Christmas hamper donations, as it is one way that we show we can put others before ourselves and learn as Christ taught us to be in service of others.
Thank you to all students, families and staff for contributing to this worthwhile social justice project.

π₯₯πΊ As part of our St Agnes Week celebrations, students had the wonderful opportunity to learn how to prepare 'ππππ’', a traditional Pasifika drink, alongside Francis and Mr Fonua. This hands-on cultural experience gave students the chance to learn about Pasifika traditions, develop practical food preparation skills, and work together in a fun and collaborative environment. It was fantastic to see so many students enthusiastically embracing the opportunity to celebrate and share in Pasifika culture. #StAgnes #StAgnesWeek #Pasifika #CulturalLearning #Community #Otai #CelebratingCulture πΊπ₯₯
