Operation Christmas Child
As part of our Social Justice work - students in the Youth Ministry have orgainsed a casual clothes day to raise funds for Operation Christmas Child. Each class has chosen their own different theme for the Casual Clothes day, which are listed above for Year 2. Our Youth Ministry is asking children bring a $2 coin in for the day as a donation.
Student donations will go towards a Christmas box for a child in need. We are hoping to raise enough to donate 13 boxes, one for each class, this Christmas.
Please note; students are not required to dress up and can just wear casual clothes if they’d prefer.

Operation Christmas Child
Operation Christmas Child is a project of Samaritan’s Purse. It is a hands-on way for you to bless children in need across the world by filling shoeboxes with toys, hygiene items, school supplies, and fun gifts. We collect the boxes and distribute them in the name of Jesus Christ to children living in vulnerable situations.
The mission of Operation Christmas Child is to provide God’s love in a tangible way to children in need around the world, and together with the local church worldwide, to share the Good News of Jesus Christ.
