Our hearts (and tummies!) are full today thanks to the amazing students at St Joseph's Primary School Kerang.

They’ve lovingly prepared Christmas puddings for our Kerang Meals on Wheels clients, a beautiful act of kindness that spreads joy and connection during the festive season.

Thank you for sharing the true spirit of Christmas with our community! 🎄✨
