School supplies and a laptop for Beau in Parramatta
Help Beau begin Grade 9 with a laptop, uniform and books.
🇦🇺 Parramatta, New South Wales, Australia424 views
Beau earned a place in Grade 9 at the Parramatta Selective School, and the family couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things He needs, including a laptop for the robotics course, and a uniform.
The family has few resources; the list costs $700, which is more than they have.
Beau loves robotics and wants to become a teacher. A laptop will allow coursework at home instead of waiting for library hours.
He will take care of everything given and works very hard.
I'll buy the items from the school's approved supplier and post photos of everything.
Where the $700 goes:
• Textbooks and workbooks: $160
• Laptop: $470
• Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $70
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.
Updates from Lauren
Quick update: $384 raised so far (55%). I met with the school supplier and confirmed the amounts. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.
Thank you all. We're at 56% now ($394). I'm honestly stunned. I made the first payment toward textbooks and workbooks.

hope things get better soon, Lauren. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Greetings from Berlin.
You're not alone. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. All the best.
