This year the initiative will be led by Foley House under the direction of Mrs Maddie Henry, Head of House. The college is partnering with Zonta & Birthing Kit Foundation Australia, with Year 12 students assembling the kits during Period 6 ASH lesson on Thursday the 5th of March.

Birthing Kit Foundation Australia's Clean Birth Kits are an invaluable resource in emergency and humanitarian settings, especially for communities in developing countries where the risk of injury and even death to mothers and babies can be high due to infection. The environmentally kits help provide safer births and prevent infection for mothers and newborns.
