St Mary’s School, Young, has been collecting donations for the St Vincent de Paul Christmas Appeal throughout December. 

This year saw record donations from school families. St Vincent de Paul representative, Darrin Bear, was very grateful when he visited the school to collect the items.

School Captains, Josh Cameron and Madi James and Vice Captains, Zoe McRae and Jackson Butt were honoured to assist Mr Bear in packing the donations to be taken back to St Vincent de Paul. The items kindly donated by the school community will be included in Christmas Hampers for families in need this Christmas.

“We would like to thank our families for their generous donations towards the St Vincent de Paul Christmas Appeal,” said Sarah Sullivan, Religious Education Coordinator at St Mary’s, Young. “It is wonderful to see and outpouring of care and support for those who most need it at Christmas.”
