Our wonderful parent/carer volunteers assisted with the cooking and serving of pancakes on Tuesday morning
On Tuesday the 13th of February, students, staff and parent/carer volunteers came together to celebrate Pancake Tuesday at St John's Primary.
Pancake Tuesday marks the day before the commencement of the Lenten season, which will continue until the 29th of March.
We would like to thank Belinda Murray, Josephine Sultana, Lisa Maggio, Alison Laurie, Sarah Fuller, Chloe Walsh, Jane Stanton and Jessica Stone who cooked, cleaned and served on the day; without such generosity, these events would not be possible.
Donations on the day raised an amazing $170.00 for Caritas Australia. Caritas shares the mission of the Catholic Church to serve the poor and to promote charity and justice throughout the world.
Overall, the day was a great success with students enjoying their pancakes to mark the beginning of Lent, and raising valuable money for a great cause.
Again, we would like to thank the staff and volunteers who worked to ensure that this event was possible.
