In a year that has seen many difficulties arise across the hospitality and sporting industry, the Wyong Roos Foundation has been able to give us a considerable donation of supermarket vouchers each term to keep our Breakfast Club supplied with essential food and operational items. If you are visiting the Wyong Roos Leagues Club over the holidays please take a moment to express your gratitude to them for their continued support of Gorokan children. THANK YOU Wyong Rugby League Club

Foodbank were able to help us source fruit, extra bread, cereal, spreads and long life milk.... THANK YOU for your ongoing support of Gorokan children.
