This term, the Junior School is coming together to honour the memory of Richelle Gyau-Awuah,<\/strong> a much-loved Year 1 teacher who inspired so many through her kindness, creativity, and passion for gardening. To celebrate her love of nature and her care for others, we\u2019ll be holding two special fundraisers that reflect her spirit of giving and growth.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. The Peace of Mind Foundation<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Throughout the term, we will be supporting the Peace of Mind Foundation, a charity that helps Australian families affected by brain cancer. The foundation provides emotional support, counselling, retreats, and financial assistance to families during incredibly difficult times. It also funds research and raises awareness to bring hope to those in need.<\/p>\n

    The Peace of Mind Foundation has a special place in our community, as it supported Mrs Gyau-Awuah and her family throughout last year and this year. By supporting this charity, we continue her legacy of compassion and care.<\/p>\n

    1. Garden Day Fundraiser<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      To celebrate Mrs Gyau-Awuah\u2019s love of gardening, we\u2019ll also be hosting Garden Day<\/em><\/strong> on Wednesday 19 November 2025.<\/strong> On this day, Junior School students and staff are invited to dress in something bright, floral, or garden-inspired\u2014perhaps as a flower, bee, butterfly, gardener, or simply wearing something colourful. Girls who choose to dress up can bring a gold-coin donation, and all money raised from Garden Day will go towards improving the Year 1 balcony garden and cubby area, where 1G was.<\/p>\n

      We hope this garden will become a space for learning, reflection, and growth \u2013 a living reminder of how kindness and care can help beautiful things flourish.<\/p>\n

      We look forward to seeing everyone\u2019s floral outfits next Wednesday and joining together as a community to remember Mrs Gyau-Awuah.<\/p>\n
