YCC Day 2024
Caritas promotes authentic human development. This means development of the whole person. It provides for their economic, cultural, political, social and spiritual wellbeing.
YCC Day is a special event where Caritas joins forces with Catholic schools across New Zealand. Together, we stand in solidarity to support a good cause, raising funds and awareness for a selected focus school.
The NZ Catholic Bishops supported YCC Day in 2024.
Together our Catholic school community supported Holy Trinity School in Papua New Guinea.

But what exactly is YCC Day?
The letters remind us of the purpose:
For YCC Day in 2024, we journeyed to Papua New Guinea to support Holy Trinity School.
The school was in urgent need of essential classroom equipment, including desks and chairs, as well as resources like books and writing materials.
Schools across Aotearoa joined Caritas on Friday, 5 July 2024, to make a difference.
Key Learning Resources
These resources have been developed to support students understand what life is like for young people in Papua New Guinea and the many challenges they face. Through this learning, students will understand how their support can make a difference.
Feel free to use any or all of these resources in your classroom learning programme.
