We CAN, and we DID!🥫💜

We CAN, and we DID! A huge thank you to our incredible SAC community for your donations of canned food in support of St Janet Mead’s Adelaide Day Centre for Homeless Persons.

On Week 9, our students blended compassion and creativity, building amazing sculptures from the cans to link in with the 2025 Book Week theme – ‘Book Your Adventure’! We didn’t have to travel very far to take an amazing journey – these sculptures, constructed from thousands of cans you generously gave, showcase our students’ imaginations, and most importantly, their empathy.

One can of food, one story, and one act of kindness can make a world of difference. Enjoy some snaps from this wonderful day!

We were also thrilled to welcome back old scholar Clare Peterson for this year’s SAC Can Drive. Her heartfelt message reminded us that small actions truly matter, that showing up, doing the work, and collecting even one can can make a real difference. As Clare shared: “The first thing is showing up, doing the work, collecting the cans. The second thing is how you do it – your attitude, where your heart is. If we can spend more of our days thinking of others, the way we live our lives has the potential to be transformed. First the heart, then the hands follow. Well done SAC!“
