Sudsy challenge
The St Pat's Leadership Team and staff are supporting the Sudsy Challenge from Orange Sky Laundry once again this year. We will wear the same clothes for 3 consecutive days to raise awareness and money in support of people suffering from homelessness.
All students are invited to join us! Yes - wearing the same school clothes for Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Some challengers choose to sleep in the clothes too, we are not at that level (yet!).

R U OK?Day 2022 - Nationwide event
R U OK?Day is Thursday 8 September 2022. It’s our National Day of Action when we remind Australians to ask, ‘are you OK?’ and start a meaningful conversation to support those in their world through life’s ups and downs.This year the message is: Ask R U OK? - No qualifications needed. We want to remind Australians they already have what it takes to support their family, friends and colleagues. You don’t need to be an expert to have an R U OK? conversation. Listening and giving someone your time might be just what they need to help them through. Tune in for our nationwide virtual event where we’ll be joined by a number of special guests who will help us share conversation tips and personal stories. Register for the free short event here:
