In order for St Vinnies to create as many Christmas food hampers as possible, items have been split throughout the school. In each classroom a basket is located near the prayer space to receive donations. Donations will be presented to the local St Vinnies members on Friday, 13 December.

There is no restriction on how much you would like to give. Thank you for your generosity.
Holy Cross Parish Giving Tree
Each year the Parish of Holy Cross supports the St Vincent de Paul Society by giving gifts to those in need – people who are poor and without family. If you would like to bring joy to their lives this Christmas please buy a gift.
Gift tags are available from the Giving Tree located in the Church or from a basket in the school office foyer. When wrapping your gift please place it in an unsealed gift bag. This assists with making sure gifts are given to the most appropriate person.
Thank you
Miss Emily Costello, Religious Education Co-ordinator
