Gumboot Friday

Last week, Somerville joined the national movement, Gumboot Friday, to raise awareness for mental health and wellbeing amongst young people under 25. We held a fun non-uniform day and a raffle throughout the week, with a fantastic "wellness goodie pack" as the prize. Congratulations to Olivia in Room 10 for being our lucky winner!

Thanks to the generosity of our students and families, we were thrilled to raise a total of $1,753.20 for the I am Hope Foundation. This organisation does incredible work supporting youth mental health, and we're proud to contribute to their cause.
