The St Vincent de Paul Society was founded by a 20-year-old student named Frederic Ozanam in 1833. It was established by like minded individuals who wished to put their faith into action and here on the Junior Campus of St Andrews College, we have a group of 40 “Vinnies” students from Year 10 who are doing just that! They are:

The first of our two events this term were the Valentine’s Day Roses. This is an annual events and very much looked forward to by staff and students.
We pre-sold, prepared and then delivered 400 roses on the Junior Campus, many of which chose to take their roses home to their family and friends spreading love and friendship in our community.
Our second event held on Shrove Tuesday was Pancakes! We mixed, cooked and sold a HUGE 18L of pancake batter! These were served topping and fresh cream, but you had to be quick as we sold out by half way through lunch.
Both events helped us raised valuable funds for St Vincent de Paul and this goes towards their work helping those disadvantaged and vulnerable in our community.
Thank you to all the students, their families and staff that helped support us during these two events.
