Supporting Families in Our Community

At St Thomas Aquinas, we believe it is “better to illuminate than to shine.” Guided by this vision, our school is committed to supporting families and strengthening our community in ways that uphold dignity and reflect our values of Compassion, Justice, Service, and Respect.

Opportunities & Initiatives

Opportunities and initiatives include:

  • Parish Pantry – Open every second Friday afternoon, offering food and care to families through the generosity of our parish, families, friends, and local partners. Donations come from, but are not limited to, Sacred Heart Secondary College and our wider school community.

  • School Bus Support – providing quiet assistance for students in the local area to arrive safely and ready to learn each day.

  • Food Initiatives and Drives – ensuring we respond with compassion and generosity to the needs of others in our community.

These initiatives reflect our faith in action. By supporting one another in practical ways, we strengthen bonds of belonging and ensure every child and family feels valued and included in the life of our school.
