Dear Staff and Students<\/p>\n

2026 Winter Matthew Talbot Appeal<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

During this winter period many young men are in danger of homelessness especially in the area of Sydney.\u00a0<\/p>\n

To counter homelessness and aid young men in returning from tough times, the Vinnies Team is running an initiative where all grades will chip in to help the Matthew Talbot Hostel with resources needed for the uplifting of young men at risk of homelessness.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Collections for the Matthew Talbot Appeal will be held from Tuesday 9 June until Friday 26 June (Week 8-10) in homerooms each morning. <\/strong>We are kindly asking for your generosity to bring in an item from the below list that has been requested by the Matthew Talbot Charity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
