Hearts for Hearts

The week starting Monday 13 February, saw the inaugural MLC School Hearts for Hearts charity drive raising money for Heart Kids Australia. Heart Kids Australia is a fabulous charity which works with children with congenital heart diseases and their families providing support, care and information. 

Spreading love and happiness MLC School celebrated Valentine’s Day with cheer and a sense of joy. Each morning saw smiles as students came pouring in the gates as everyone enjoyed settling into Term 1 and the infusion of chocolate onto campus. Over five days we sold nearly 500 chocolates, and put together our positivity mural. The mural now on display in the Senior Centre is composed of hundreds of notes written by staff, students and even a few parents. The notes were messages of support, care, Taylor Swift song lyrics, positivity and fun. A sense of fun and happiness is infectious and that was seen across the School as everyone got involved with leaving a message for a friend, themselves or for the community as a whole. We’d like to thank everyone for their enthusiasm and in the wise words of one of our favourite notes pinned to the board ‘You are all amazing, unique and special. Have fun every day and don’t let anything get in your way!’
