Salvation Army Red Shield Winter Appeal Launch

Aquinas College was invited to the annual Red Shield Breakfast Launch held at Optus Stadium.

We joined many tables of corporate sponsors, volunteers and Salvation Army staff. Many presenters spoke about the rapid increase in homelessness due to the lack of affordable housing and family breakdown. Aquinas has also launched its Winter Appeal this week as well as the Red Shield Doornock on Sunday 9th June. 40 students have signed up for this event. Many thanks to Charlie and Max Backhouse, Andy Lands-Robson, Paul Rich and John Richards for representing the College at this worthwhile event.

We acknowledge the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples of Australia as the Traditional Owners and Custodians of the land of our schools. We are inspired and nurtured by their wisdom, spirituality and experience. We commit ourselves to actively work alongside them for reconciliation and justice. We pay our respects to the Elders; past, present and future. As we take our next step we remember the first footsteps taken on this sacred land.
