Dear Parents / Caregivers,

Term 3 is here already!

Our final fundraising event for Camp will be a multi-draw raffle, featuring a range of prizes including grocery hampers. To help make this a success, we’re asking each student to donate one grocery item. To ensure we have a good variety, each house group has been assigned a different category:

St Joseph’s (Red House): Cleaning products

St Matthew’s (Blue House): Non-perishables & baking items (e.g. tins, pasta, sauces, flour, sugar)

St Francis’ (Gold House): Toiletries (e.g. toothbrushes, tissues, soap)

St Patrick’s (Green House): Treat foods (e.g. chips, chocolates, lollies, biscuits)

At a previous Camp meeting, some families kindly offered donations such as firewood, pinecones, vouchers, etc. If you're still able to provide these items, we’d greatly appreciate it, please get in touch with me as soon as possible to confirm.

We’ll be printing 1,000 raffle tickets, priced at $3 each. Each student will be asked to sell 20 tickets, but more will be available if you’re able to sell extras. If all tickets are sold, this could reduce each student’s camp cost by $60. We aim to send the tickets home by the end of next week.

Thank you in advance for your generous support, every contribution helps make Camp more affordable and memorable for our students!
