During March, Mini Vinnies are walking for Caritas in the Caritas K’s fundraising initiative.

Starting on Tuesday 14th March, Mini Vinnies students will be walking laps at school, during their recess and lunch to get their ‘K’s’ up. They will carry rice, wood and water in recognition of the long walks that many people take to get these things to their homes, in underprivileged communities. The last day will be Friday 24th March where the whole school is invited to walk. This is part of our St. Joseph’s Day celebration.

“Every day, thousands of individuals around the world need to cover many kilometres to fetch water, obtain food, get to school or market, or simply to survive.” Caritas

On Friday 24th March, we will begin our St. Joseph’s Day celebration by joining for mass at 10:00am.

We will return to school by around 11:30am.

After a late recess, year levels are invited to get their steps up, by walking at, or nearby our school.

Years Foundation, Year 1 and 2 will walk laps of their junior oval.

Years 3 and 4 will walk laps of the middle and senior oval and bike path behind the school.

Years 5 and 6 will walk laps of the gardens.

Students are encouraged to wear their sports uniform for comfort.

After lunch, students will enjoy some activities organised by their teachers that focus on St. Joseph, as well as the purpose of our fundraising efforts, Caritas.
