What a great week. I love how Defence kids club, held every Thursday at first break brings kids together from all grades, all ages. We had fun dressing up this week!

During the month of March, St Joseph’s students are invited to join March On with Soldier On. This is a walking challenge to raise awareness of veteran mental health. It pays tribute to the sacrifices made by our brave soldiers in Kokoda in World War II, and highlights the importance of needing to help our soldiers of today.

Our School Challenge is to walk 1km with 96 students. The significance of 96 students is because the Kokoda Track, an infamous campaign for Australian troops in WW2 was 96km long.

Over the month of March we hope to have 96 students sign up to walking club Thursday and Friday break times. If you would like to donate or find out more https://fundraise.soldieron.org.au/fundraisers/sallyadams/school-challenge
