Project Compassion

Our Year 6 Stewardship Teams have had a strong start to their fundraising efforts over the past 2 weeks. Our Pancake Breakfast drew the early crowd and raised over $250. We then had the expertise of our Year 6 parents who came in to cook hot chips for our second team to sell. This popular lunch item raised a massive $400! St Patrick’s Day was the motivation behind our third group’s fundraiser with a free dress and jelly cups raising over $350. Our final group will be serving icy cups to the students next Friday March 28. Thank you for your continued support of Project Compassion.

Jubilee Logo

The logo shows four stylized figures, representing all of humanity, coming from the four corners of the earth. They embrace each other to indicate the solidarity and fraternity which should unite all peoples.

The figure at the front is holding onto the cross. It is not only the sign of the faith which this lead figure embraces, but also of hope, which can never be abandoned, because we are always in need of hope, especially in our moments of greatest need.

There are the rough waves under the figures, symbolising the fact that life’s pilgrimage does not always go smoothly in calm waters. Often the circumstances of daily life and events in the wider world require a greater call to hope. That’s why we should pay special attention to the lower part of the cross which has been elongated and turned into the shape of an anchor which is let down into the waves.

The anchor is well known as a symbol of hope. In maritime jargon the ‘anchor of hope’ refers to the reserve anchor used by vessels involved in emergency manoeuvres to stabilise the ship during storms.

The cross in the logo bends down towards humanity, not leaving human beings alone, but stretching out to them to offer the certainty of its presence and the security of hope. At the bottom of the logo is the motto of the 2025 Jubilee Year: Pilgrims of Hope, represented in green letters.
