Flood


Dear Parents,
You are all aware of the terrible flooding that occurred in January in Queensland, but for those of you who were on holidays during this time you may not be aware of the response by our children to this tragedy. Students were very keen to find out more about floods and learn of what happened to the people who lived in this area.

Jack O’Brien from Langley room felt compelled to make a difference and decided to collect some money to send to the Queensland Premier. With the help of his teachers he decorated a box and put it on display just past the lobby doors, and then, leading by example, emptied the entire contents of his money box into the donation box.

We will be finalising Jack’s fundraising initiative at the end of next week. Please feel free to help your child add a gold coin donation to the box above the flood display just through the lobby doors any day next week.
Thankyou
On behalf of Jack
