St Andrews Students Build Hope, One Bunk Bed at a Time, in Nepal

Bunk beds purchased from the funds raised

The spirit of generosity and global citizenship is alive and well at St Andrews, as the school's Mission Services Learning (MSL) program proudly announces a remarkable achievement: raising an impressive $1400 to fund four much-needed bunk beds for a hostel in Nepal through the sausage sizzle and Colour Run in Term 1. This incredible effort is more than just a financial contribution; it's a tangible step towards providing comfort, dignity, and a better future for young people in the hostel. These bunk beds will not only maximise space in the often-crowded dormitories but also offer a more stable and comfortable sleeping arrangement, crucial for the well-being and academic focus of the residents.

We are incredibly proud of our students for embracing this project with such passion and commitment. The $1400 raised represents not just money, but a collective desire to make a real difference in the lives of others, particularly those who face significant challenges. 

“But do not forget to do good and to share, for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.”

Hebrews 13:16

Nepal Mission Trip in 2026

But the journey doesn't end with the donation. In an exciting development, a team from St Andrews is set to embark on a transformative trip to Nepal in January 2026. This hands-on experience will allow students and staff to witness firsthand the impact of their fundraising efforts and engage directly with the communities they are supporting.

This initiative is a testament to St Andrews' commitment to fostering responsible global citizens. By combining fundraising with direct engagement, the MSL program is equipping students with the knowledge, skills, and heart to contribute meaningfully to a more equitable world. We look forward to sharing updates of more fundraising activities and introduce the team that is going to journey in January and the ongoing impact of this vital partnership.
