Kids Get Creative for Project Compassion!

We've been lucky enough to receive some fantastic photos of communities across Australia who have taken part in Project Compassion this year.

Here are just a few of the fun and creative events we have heard of recently:


Bug Your Principle with some yummy 'bugcakes'. Students from St Marks added an imaginative twist to the traditional cake stall and decided to 'Bug their Principle' by selling cupcakes covered in delicious bug-like decorations. They sure look tastier than your average bug! 

Feast on some delicious 'plopcorn cow patties' and 'moo juice'. Sound tasty to you? These kids certainly thought so at their recent cow-themed fundraiser! Along with the inventive treats, the event also featured a real life 'cowitas' that starred in a game of 'Cow Poo Lotto'. A grid was drawn out in the cow's pen and guesses were made as to where the lucky 'Number 2' would land. Take a guess at where the eagle landed anyone?
Show the world you're 'walking to make a difference'. Students and teachers from St Pius Banyo school really showed their compassion by holding a 'Walk to Make a Difference'. The school made some great cards that each student wore to proudly proclaim "I am walking to make a difference"!

Incredible efforts everyone! Thank you very much to all the students and teachers who have rallied together for Project Compassion. Together, we are helping build better lives for the poorest of the poor around the world.
