Connecting College and Community

Mother’s Day

We offer our warm thanks to all who have supported Friends of Pacific this week with our Mother’s Day Stall. We trust the students have enjoyed the opportunity to purchase a gift, as an expression of the love and gratitude they have for their mums.

Thank you to our wonderful Year 4 parents for hosting the Prep – Year 5 Stall and Student Leaders for their support of the Year 6-12 Stall. A special thank you to Mrs Shannon Russell and Mrs Sanet Strong for their time, energy and creative genius and the Delarue family and Grandma Wendy for generously donating such beautiful handcrafted gifts. Our thanks to the Grounds Staff and the teaching staff for supporting this event and to the Year 5 Champions for Change for their guidance and work toward making this event eco-friendly. Thank you also to our friends at Shine Beauty Caloundra for generously helping us to honour and celebrate the wonderful mothers who contribute to our Pacific community.
