Last Friday ten students in Year 5/6 travelled by private car to McAuley Catholic Central School, Tumut, to participate in a day titled, What is Social Justice? This day was organised by the Society of St Vincent de Paul. Our presenters Wes, Therese and Patricia, led the students through three workshops which focused on a different aspect of  living below the poverty line. Interesting activities allowed students to explore what it means to 'sleep rough' and why people may need to  'couch surf' when they are faced with challenges. The content was often explained through simple games and human graphs. The day also raised many questions of how we can support people in need. The story of The Good Samaritan was pivotal as it was this story from Luke's Gospel, that inspired St Vincent when he was walking through the streets of Paris three hundred years ago. What an amazing legacy St Vincent has encouraged.
