Social Justice Initiatives

Polished man

October is Polished Man month. Polished Man is an organisation that supports trauma prevention and trauma recovery programs for children who are at risk of, or who have suffered violence.

Next Tuesday 27 October our Social Justice Team will raise money for Polished Man by encouraging the College community to paint a single fingernail blue.

A stand will be set up in the courtyard outside the canteen where students and staff can have their nail painted for a gold coin donation.

Bandana day

Over the years, our school community has been affected many times by cancer and this year has been no exception.

On Thursday 29 October and Friday 30 October the Social Justice team will sell bandanas in the courtyard outside the canteen to raise money for Canteen – an organisation that helps people impacted by cancer get access to programs, counselling, and peer support.

Staff and students are encouraged to wear their bandana on Friday 30 October to show their support for the cause. Bandanas cost between $5 and $15 depending on the pattern and material.
