The Festival of Loreto Day 2020
Friday 19 June 2020
Year 11 has been busily working behind the scenes to re-imagine Loreto Day. This year, we are approaching Loreto Day more as “The Festival of Loreto Day” which will include some activities in the lead up to the day and in the week after Loreto Day in our support of our cause this year, ACRATH (Australian Catholic Religious Against Trafficking in Humans).
Activities for The Festival of Loreto Day 2020 include:
The Online Raffle |
This year’s Loreto Day Raffle is online. There are some wonderful prizes on offer so please get behind the Year 11 cause of ACRATH. Best of luck to those who purchase tickets and thank you to those parents and staff who have already done so. |
The Online Auction |
Look out for an email about this next week. |
Loreto Day badges |
The Loreto Day badges are appearing on many lapels around the school! There is still time to buy your badge that represents the UN’s Sustainability Development Goals and includes the House colours of the secondary school and boarding school. Loreto Day will be cashless this year so you can purchase your pin via eftpos at student services or through the uniform shop. |
Loreto Day Showbags |
Watch this space! |
Awareness Raising for ACRATH |
From next week, House Time will include awareness raising for the projects that ACRATH supports. Signage, food, relaxed and social activities on the oval with each Year Group. |
