St Patrick's Easter generosity

St. Patrick’s Primary Blacktown staff donated Easter eggs and bags to create Easter packages to give to the poor on the streets. Some of our Mini Vinnies students sorted and bagged the Easter eggs in preparation for delivery to the Patrician Brothers Vinnies Team.

Since our students were too young to work on the Vinnies Van, the Patrician Brothers Vinnies team gladly assisted us in distributing our Easter eggs to the poor on the streets.

St Patrick's students also participated in Project Compassion fundraising through Project Compassion boxes that were located in each class which students contributed to.
