24.01.2022 It is wonderful to see our friends at Lenakel Presbyterian College open their new school building. We are thrilled to have been able to help and to have such a rewarding relationship with this beautiful community. We can't wait for the day when we can come and see it in action. Well done to the many students and staff who have contributed to and learned from time spent at Lenakel and in Tanna!

04.01.2022 On Friday 30 October Year 10 students Lily Bowlen, Charlotte Hutchings and Lulu Morgan will brave the razor, shaving their heads to raise money for the Leukaemia Foundation. They are on a mission to shave the world from blood cancer! Please sponsor the girls to give families facing blood cancer the emotional and practical support they need. You’ll also fund vital research to help more people survive blood cancers, while improving their quality of life. Every day another 47 Au...stralians are diagnosed with a blood cancer. That’s one Aussie every 31 minutes. Although research is improving survival, sadly an Australian loses their life to blood cancer every two hours. To date the team have raised $5,269.51, help them reach their goal of $6,000 before the locks come off! Donate here: https://secure.leukaemiafoundation.org.au//TeamFundraising
