At our recent School Assembly, students were officially acknowledged and inducted into a number of our school service groups.  This year, due to an overwhelming number of students who were keen to be involved in serving others, new service groups, facilitated by some of our Year 11 students have evolved. 

Teen and Mini Vinnies groups for 2021.   

Teen and Mini Vinnies is an active body of students who aim to make a difference to those who are poor, disadvantaged and marginalised.  It is not just about raising money, but also raising awareness about issues within our community and world.  

Under the guidance of Mr Mahoney, Mrs Ryan and Mr Grew these groups continue to serve and assist our local SVDP chapter.
