On Sunday the 25th of February, our iHelp (Social Justice) students participated in mass at St John 23rd in Stanhope Gardens.
We had students involved during the mass in many different ways: welcoming the parishioners, reading prayers of the faithful, offertory, taking up the collections and dancing a liturgical movement to our School Song “This Holy Cross”.
We had so much fun sharing our gifts with the parish. After the mass, we held a cake stall outside the church. We all had fun selling the cakes we had made, and using our mathematical skills to work out the change for each sale. We raised an amazing $796.05.
The money raised has been donated to the Pastoral Care Group at St John 23rd Parish. This group spends time with the elderly people within our community, the money will go towards taking these people out and about, ensuring that they're having a wonderful time!
Thank you to our wonderful parents who helped us make delicious cakes and slices for this event and for helping us to sell on the day!
We are looking forward to our next Social Justice initiative so that we can continue a difference to others in our community!

Happy All Saints Day! This is a day that we commemorate all the Christian saints in Heaven. Some of these are well-known saints, however, there are many saints who are not as widely recognised. All Saints’ Day ensures that these saints, too, are commemorated on this special occasion. We are called to live saintly lives by following in the footsteps of Jesus like the saints. iHelp researched many different saints and wrote prayers asking for the saints to pray for us. ihelp learnt that everyone can be like the saints by doing charitable works. They made snack packs from donations that were given to the Ignite Food Store. ✝️ Catholic Schools Parramatta Diocese Ignite Food Store & Op Shop Emerton28 Oct 2024
