Colour Fun Run
We are hosting a Colour Fun Run, where students will run through a lively course filled with colour, music, and cheer. This year, the run carries a deeper purpose: students will be seeking sponsorships from family and friends to raise funds for the Royal Flying Doctor Service (RFDS) – Wellbeing Out West program, which provides vital mental health support to young people in rural and remote communities across Queensland. We encourage families to help students gather sponsorships and spread awareness of this important cause. Every contribution helps make a difference.

Every dollar creates safety, dignity, and independence.
Conservation Appeal
Shalom from the Ballarat Hebrew Congregation The Ballarat Synagogue presents ‘160 Years of History in the Making’, dating back to the Victorian Gold Rush. The Synagogue was heritage listed in 1974. Over the decades the Synagogue has been a hive of activity, running both religious services and taking on an active role in the community. With the flourishing life of the Synagogue comes the responsibility of conserving it for future generations. To maintain its heritage status, the Ballarat Synagogue requires ongoing maintenance, while the Paul Simon Hall needs urgent repairs both inside and out. HOW YOU CAN HELP More than ever we need to maintain a strong Jewish presence in the region and keep our community safe. This appeal addresses both our immediate security and maintenance needs as well as the Synagogue's long-term future, so it may be preserved for our children, our children’s children and beyond Donations to the Ballarat Synagogue Public Fund above $2 are tax deductible.
