Ks for Caritas

Melton Campus proudly concluded its Project Compassion fundraising efforts last week with the annual Ks for Caritas event.

This event gave students and staff a powerful insight into the daily realities faced by vulnerable communities who must carry clean water and food over long distances.

Each House team worked together to carry a 5kg bag of rice and a bucket of water across the width of the oval. The experience encouraged participants to reflect on the physical demands many people endure each day, fostering both empathy and understanding.

The event continues to grow each year, both in participation and impact. This year, 273 staff and students took part, collectively completing an impressive 2197 laps.

The results for each House are:

Anthony: 58 students - 466 laps

Bakhita: 39 students – 211 laps

Bernard: 11 students – 146 laps

Catherine: 14 students - 100 laps

Domenic: 31 students – 389 laps

Glowrey: 34 students – 560 laps

Lawrence: 29 students – 133 laps

MacKillop: 57 students – 192 laps

Due to the rain experienced last week, the Cobblebank Campus Ks for Caritas event was rescheduled and will be held during Big Break tomorrow, Wednesday 1 April.
