Louise Wilson, Organising Teacher PINK RIBBON MORNING TEA

On Monday, 24 October, the staff at William Bayldon Public School hosted a Pink Ribbon Morning Tea. Staff brought in some delicious food to share and we raised over $300 to go to the Cancer Council's Pink Ribbon campaign. This campaign aims to raise awareness about breast and gynaecological cancers, as well as raise funds for prevention programs, support services and vital cancer research.

Thank you to the staff for supporting this important campaign.

Joanne Carey, Relieving School Administrative Manager

OZHARVEST FUNDRAISER

One movie ticket can change 14 lives

OzHarvest will host world premiere screenings of acclaimed food waste documentary ‘Theater of Life’ across Australia in November!

Last year the world’s best chef Massimo Bottura brought together 60 of the world’s top chefs to create a restaurant like no other – turning rescued food into fine dining meals for those in need.

The result is ‘Theater of Life’, a moving documentary film that showcases Massimo Bottura’s extraordinary leadership on this global issue and brings focus on the importance of eliminating hunger and food waste around the world.

Each ticket sold allows OzHarvest to provide 14 meals to those in need around Australia.

‘Theater of Life’ is premiering at locations around Australia, Monday, 14 November.
