Thank you and Merry Christmas

As we wrap up another busy year, we would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to our incredible Canteen volunteers. It is no small task keeping more than 1000 girls well nourished—and yet you have turned up, willing, generous, and always with a smile. Your energy, kindness and reliability have made an enormous difference to our community.

To those who joined us for just a few shifts and to those who were here week after week—thank you. Your contribution lightens the load, supports our students, and embodies the spirit of Stella.

As we look ahead to 2026, we would love to welcome new faces to the volunteering team. If you are interested in volunteering, even just a little, please reach out to me via canteen@stellamaris.nsw.edu.au

Wishing you and your families a joyful, restful and very Merry Christmas (with plenty of delicious food).
