St Spyridon College students lead Easter Appeal supporting community causes

·

Students at St Spyridon College have been recognised for their leadership and generosity after delivering a highly successful Easter Appeal, supporting both local welfare services and charitable initiatives.

Year 9 students, alongside teacher Ms Koops, were commended for their outstanding leadership in coordinating this year’s campaign, which saw strong participation across the school community.

Thanks to contributions from students in Years 7 to 12, more than 70 boxes of food were collected and donated to the Greek Welfare Centre, providing much-needed support to families in need.

The initiative culminated in the school’s Easter Assembly, where 50 Easter hampers were raffled, with the major prize being a family pass to the Sydney Royal Easter Show. Proceeds from the raffle will be directed to the Lafora Disease Research Fund, as well as Circus Quirkus.

The school thanked all students and staff who contributed to the initiative, highlighting the strong sense of community and service that underpinned the appeal’s success.
