An extraordinary show of support and unity for our Year 7 superhero, Archie, who is currently facing challenging health issues. Our school community came together to show their love and support for Archie by wearing his favourite colour, red.
Archie, a devoted fan of Manchester United, proudly donned his team’s jersey while many other students and staff also sported red football shirts and clothing items in solidarity with Archie. Our resident furry mascot Pad also didn’t pass up the opportunity to show his support.
The aim of today is also to raise money to assist Archie and his family with the expenses associated with his treatment abroad. There were some extraordinary contributions, including from our Year 3 student Kabir M, who donated his pocket money of over $200.
An incredible $8000 was raised thanks to the support of our families and our P and F committee.
As the school continues to support Archie through his treatment, it is clear that he is not fighting alone. Our school community stands with him and his family every step of the way, ready to offer our love and support whenever it is needed.
To support Archie and his family on their journey, you can make an EFTPOS donation at our Senior School Administration or via his GoFundMe page – gofund.me/2da05ea2

On behalf of Archie’s family and the St James’ community, thank you for your incredible support!
