This year, Catholic Mission is raising money to support vulnerable children in Timor-Leste.

Being one of Australia's closest neighbours, Timor-Leste is a small island republic just under 700kms from Darwin, which shares its western border with Indonesia. The country secured its independence from Indonesia in 2001, after an oppressive and violent occupation. Today, the scars still linger as the people grapple with the effects of poverty, low quality healthcare and infrastructure, corruption and inequality.

Catholic Mission, through Socktober events in schools and communities, will raise funds to help provide milk and food for babies with malnutrition and provide life-saving medication for sick children.

Socktober Day for us will be held on Thursday 26 October which is next week. We encourage all students and staff to come wearing either crazy socks, or your favourite soccer team's socks for a gold coin donation and also participate in a socktober penalty shootout using sockballs.

Our students have been busy this week making ‘sockballs’ to use in the penalty shootout challenge. Learn more about this very worthy cause by watching this video.

Your generous donations are greatly appreciated.
