Parramatta
I earned a place in Year 11 at Parramatta Science Academy, and I couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things I need, including a laptop for the design and technology course, and a uniform. My mother works two jobs, and the list costs $850, which is more than we have. I love design and technology and want to become an engineer. A laptop will let me do coursework at home instead of waiting for library hours. I'll take care of everything you give me and I promise to work hard. I'll buy the items from the school's approved supplier and post photos of everything. Where the $850 goes: • Textbooks and workbooks: $290 • School uniform and shoes: $95 • Laptop: $465 Thanks for reading all this. - Joseph

Updates from Joseph

  1. Wanted to say thank you properly. 55% funded and the plan for school uniform and shoes is now scheduled.

  2. Update from Parramatta: we've booked the dates and paid the deposit. We're at 32% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
