Community Service
Giving to the community is a focus for our students. The Guidance Program in Years 7 & 8 provides a component of community service. Community Service also operates on a year group basis. Students support community projects as follows:
Salvation Army Red Shield Appeal
Stewart House
Legacy
Amnesty International
Clean Up Australia Day
Cancer Council
Winter Sleep Out
Jeans for Genes Day
Fort Street High School has been involved with the Just Enough Faith (JEF) organisation for the past six years. This program involves students in year 11 giving a few hours of their time two or three times during the school year to assist in feeding some of Sydney's homeless. Students who volunteer have their names placed on a roster and attend JEF usually once per term on a Wednesday evening at the Domain. Students are supervised by a member of staff and other adult volunteers.
