Mary MacKillop International (MMI) is the aid and development organisation of the Sisters of St Joseph.
In the spirit of Mary MacKillop, they work in partnership with local communities in Australia, throughout Timor-Leste, Peru and Papua New Guinea in the areas of education, health, and livelihoods.
Their program aspirations are that all members of the community can read and write, enjoy good health and have sustainable livelihoods. By partnering with local communities MMI brings dignity to thousands of children, women, and families.
With this in mind, we can be assured that our donation will help those less fortunate in our world.

Today Year 3 went on an excursion to the Australian Museum in the city. They began the day by meeting a Gemologist and finding out all about their work at the museum. Then they explored the Minerals room. They worked in groups to find all the gems on their cards and answer the questions. Year 3 then explored some of the other areas of the museum and even stopped for a photo with a dinosaur! What a fun last day of term!![980116777452655_1288545753276421-1]()
