Children cannot choose their circumstances

For one in six Australian children and young people growing up in poverty, it can limit their choices, opportunities and outcomes in life.

Investing in the education of a disadvantaged child delivers long-term positive benefits for them, their family and potentially generations to come.

This Friday for our last day of term, the SRC will be collecting donations for The Smith Family. Children are to come out of uniform for the day (please make sure you wear a hat) and bring a gold coin donation to help with our donations. 

The Smith Family support children and young people to participate more fully in their education by providing innovative, evidence-based programs and emotional, practical and financial support throughout their schooling and tertiary education.

The Smith Family give disadvantaged students the skills, motivation and essentials to stay in school and get the most from their education so they can create a better future for themselves.

The Smith Family increase school readiness and provide support to disadvantaged primary and high school students to close the gap and create greater educational equality.
