Mini Vinnies

Mini-Vinnies are a group who turn concern into action. They see who needs help, think how they can help and go into action to help others.

Our Mini-Vinnie committee members are invited to become a member of the St Vincent de Paul society for life. This includes being a Mini-Vinnie throughout their time at Barkston Ash Catholic Primary School.  Being a Mini-Vinnie is a big commitment; there is a  recruitment process annually in school.  The Mini-Vinnies meet regularly and discuss ways in which they can help and serve others. 

The Mini-Vinnie Pledge

As a member of Mini-Vinnies, I promise to make a difference in the world by:

• Strengthening my friendship with Jesus by talking to Him each day and talking to others about Him; 
• Caring for others in my school and community by being a friend to those who are alone, in need or in trouble; 
• Making my family happy by my help, respect and showing kindness and consideration; 
• Caring for and enjoying God’s world; 
• Treating others the way I would like them to treat me.
