As mentioned previously in the newsletter, for the remainder of this year we are supporting Catholic Mission’s efforts in Ethiopia.

At St Michael’s we are aiming to support the Goat Rearing Centre in Emdibir by raising enough funds to purchase goats. Every $75 that we raise will purchase another goat for the centre. By purchasing goats we provide the community with many resources: meat, milk, cheese and will be able to use their fleece. The community will also be able to sell the goats creating an income.  If you would like to learn more about the work that Catholic Mission are doing please check out the website Socktober: for mission month

The first of our fundraising efforts will start this week with a Colouring Competition and a ‘Guess the lollies in the jar’. The student leaders will come around to the classrooms over the next few days to speak with the children. Entry in both of these competitions will be 50c.
