Today some student from Grades 3-6 had the opportunity to visit the Asylum Resource Center in Footscray. It was very beneficial to see first hand the positive impact that our donations are making to those people most in need in our community. You can learn more about the Center, including ways you can help by visiting their website below. The selected students will be sharing their learning from the experience with the rest of our school community soon. Here are some feedback from students and photos of our trip.
"It was the most amazing place I've ever been!" (Xavier Healey)
"It was an eye opening experience and a memory that I will never forget" (Mark Cuni)
Max and Xavier came home very inspired by the work the ASRC does. With the very sad news we hear daily of the plight of asylum seekers all over the world it's great for the children to see that there are practical things they can do to help. Thanks to all the staff who organised and supported the excursion.

This looked like a very beneficial excursion to be a part of, it's so lovely to see where our generous donations are going and for those students who went an amazing opportunity to see how we are making a difference.
