Ice Bucket Challenge

Leonello_Grace.jpg

To wrap up Term One in the most unforgettable way, our College community united for the Ice Bucket Challenge fundraiser in support of the Caritas Myanmar Earthquake Appeal. In an incredible display of generosity and school spirit, we raised just over $1500, with every dollar going directly to assist those affected by the devastating earthquake.

The energy on the day was electric, with fourteen courageous teachers volunteering to be dunked in icy water. A massive thank you to the following staff for their enthusiasm and support: Mr Lee, Mr Watkins, Mr Liguoro, Ms Kilcullen, Mr Arciuolo, Ms Vanyai, Mr Mazzarelli, Ms Dunn, Mr Boden, Mr Tang, Ms Taylor, Mr Tavella, and Mr Quadrio.

As College Captain, I want to express my heartfelt thanks to Ms Cannon and Ms Taylor for being by my side throughout the planning and execution of the event. Your encouragement and support were invaluable. A special thank you also to Ms Sergi for her assistance with the event setup. This fundraiser would not have been possible without the dedication and passion of our incredible TMC staff.

A big shout-out goes to our amazing Year Nine SRCs, who helped run the soft drink stall, Zooper Doopers and sausage sizzle with energy and care. Your service and teamwork truly brought the day to life.

To everyone who donated, thank you. Your kindness and generosity makes a real difference. A special mention to 7 Aqua and 7 Green, who raised an outstanding amount and showed exceptional commitment to the cause.

There was something truly magical about seeing our college community come together. Students and staff, united by compassion, fun and a shared purpose, made the day unforgettable. The laughter, the smiles and of course, the icy splashes were a joyful and meaningful way to end the term.

What a way to close Term One. Wishing everyone a fresh and focused start to Term Two.
