Merry Month of May The Merry Month of May (MMoM) is a student-led campaign that takes place each year. Leading up to MMoM, our Senior School Leaders selected four organisations to support, to raise funds for, and awareness of, the issues those organisations are seeking to address. In 2022 the selected organisations were: Week 1 – Girls from Oz Week 2 – Polished Man Week 3 – AYCC (Australian Youth Climate Coalition)

The culmination of MMoM was the drawing of the fundraising raffle with a bountiful prize pool on offer to the hundreds of people who purchased tickets. Over the course of the MMoM, we raised $46,617.35 which subsequently became $47,000 thanks to the generosity of a donor who was particularly impressed by the students’ commitment. Thank you to all who participated in, and donated to, the Merry Month of May – what a merry month it was!

Week 4 – Leukemia Foundation (World’s Greatest Shave For A Cure) Throughout May, our School Leaders planned barbeques, casual clothes days, stalls, friendly competitions, exhibition sports matches, all accompanied by a great deal of music.
