RCD Foundation, Go Grey in May Day
In Term 2, students from across the school community came together to support the RCD Foundation’s ‘Go Grey in May Day’ campaign. This event, organised by the student Community Service Committee, aimed to raise awareness about childhood brain cancer and gather funds for research and support programs. The day was filled with various activities that allowed students to express their creativity while learning about an important cause.
The highlight of the day was a lunch time event held in front of Helenslea. Students enthusiastically participated in a dance party, showcasing their moves and spreading joy throughout the school. Alongside the dance activities, students engaged in drawing sessions and games. The drawings served as a visual representation of their support for the cause and encouraging further discussions about childhood brain cancer.
By participating in events like the ‘Go Grey in May Day,’ students not only contribute to a cause but also develop empathy, compassion, and a sense of social responsibility. It is through such initiatives that we can create a more compassionate and aware society.
The Nappy Collective
On the Nappy Collective Sorting Day, student volunteers enthusiastically joined forces with community volunteers to sort, count, and box donated nappies. Their attention to detail and commitment to the task at hand demonstrated their dedication to making a difference in the lives of families in need.
