SRC love pink day

Pink Day 2022

AMAZING!

Today the SRC proudly presented a $2000 donation to Tomaree Breast Cancer Support Group. Sarah Smith, president of TBCS Group and Christine Walton were delighted to accept this generous donation and said what a difference this would make as Covid had greatly impacted their fundraising efforts.

Tomaree High School staff member, Ms Blackwell and families of Parfitt, O'Flaherty, Clissold, Keating and Conroy contributed $450 towards the Pink Day fundraiser.

Thank you Aldi Salamander for your generous donation of supplies. Thank you to all the families who baked cakes and biscuits. Thank you SRC members. Thank you Mr Anderson for supporting the SRC. Thank you community for your dollars!
