Right now in Australia, more than 122,000 people don’t have a place to call home! Everyone deserves a safe place to call home. For over a decade, supporters of the Vinnies CEO Sleepout have provided essential support to tens of thousands of Australians. This year, you can make a difference by donating to our campaign, https://www.ceosleepout.org.au/fundraisers/annamasters/act.
This Friday, May 20th, is World Bee Day.
World Bee Day is held in recognition of the role bees play in sustaining food security, biodiversity, ecosystems health... and ultimately humans and many other species.
At Merici we will be holding a lunchtime stall on Friday 20 May offering honey joys for $1 and beeswax lip balm for $3 made by students.
Proceeds will be donated to Wheen Bee Foundation, towards the Rita Fund for Australian Native Bees.

Get a plant!
Australians spend around 90% of their time indoors.
Studies show that indoor air is more polluted than outdoor air.
Indoor plants are an easy and attractive way to purify the air in your home and workplace.
Keep them away from your pets though!
