Staff and students brought in an item for the hampers or packages of kindness to local families in need.
The hampers are identical and they are organised by the 2019 Community Action Team (CAT) led by Amanda Harrison and Sue Hone.
This year they provided over 36 hampers and boxes of assorted gifts and extras. The hampers contain items such as tinsel, ham, biscuits, Christmas pudding, and lollies.
"There is no greater moment in the school year than watching the plethora of gifts marched down the aisle in the middle of our end of year mass," Ms Hone said.
"It is right then that you see how much each student cares as each year the initiative continues to grow through the generosity of our community.

"You also get to see the smiles of the faces of the students who are selected to carry the hampers for the presentation," Ms Harrison added.
"It is a genuine expression of pride in what they have achieved and what is still to come."
