The wonderful season of Advent is starting soon and the College is undertaking two projects for social justice.
Firstly, the staff are donating money to the Christchurch City Mission's Christmas appeal. We aim to raise enough money to get a 'star' in the city.(https://www.citymission.org.nz/).
Secondly, the students will have a mufti day on Thursday 28th November. Students are invited to donate money for the Christchurch Saint Vincent de Paul Christmas toy appeal (https://www.svdpchch.co.nz/vinnies-youth.html).
Both these organisations are local and motivated by the Gospel messages of charity, love and hope.
As parents, please support the College by;
[1] talking to your sons about the real Christmas message
[2] donating money to the organisations
[3] praying for peace in our families, our city and global community.
Any monetary donations can be made to the College: to the front office staff or myself.
Yours in Christ,
Stephen Kennedy
Director of Religious Studies
