Term 3: Embracing the Uganda Project – Living Fully, Acting Justly

This term, our community at Catholic Regional College Caroline Springs turns its focus to the Uganda Project, our ongoing partnership with St Francis Primary School in Kizinga, Uganda. What began as a simple outreach has grown into a powerful expression of compassion, stewardship, and solidarity.

Thanks to the generous support of our students, families, and staff, we’ve made significant progress over the years: the construction and furnishing of multiple classroom blocks, the development of a daily food program, access to clean water, and the refurbishment of the local church. This year, the momentum continues with the construction of a third brick classroom block and the installation of water tanks set for completion by year’s end.

Every contribution, no matter the size, brings real change to the lives of hundreds of children who now have the chance to learn, grow, and thrive.

As Pope Francis reminds us, “In a world where there is so much wealth... it is incomprehensible how there can be so many hungry children, so many children without an education.” Through the Uganda Project, we are responding with action, living out our College motto Live Fully, Act Justly, and upholding the Gospel call to serve others with empathy and love.

We invite all members of our community to stay engaged as Term 3 unfolds. Keep an eye out for upcoming fundraising events and opportunities to contribute. Together, we are making a lasting impact, one rooted in faith, compassion, and hope.
