The SRC would like to say a big thank you to everyone for your support with Friday’s casual clothes fundraiser. All up, the school has managed to raise $2269 to support the Dalousu village in the Solomon Islands. This will be especially welcomed by the community amid the unrest that is currently unfolding in the capital city of Honiara.

While initially we had planned to direct all of our fundraising effort towards the solar power project for the village, after speaking with the Rotary Club on Friday, we have learned that the people in Dalousu are suffering food shortages because of the riots. The SRC have decided that it is also important that a portion of the money raised is used for emergency rice rations and the rest will go towards a solar power system.
