Our Vision...
is to assist the Principals in low decile schools to remove any obstacles that restrict the students in fully participating in the school curriculum.
“Now our students have such a sense of belonging and pride and are achieving so much more than we ever thought possible.”
Jono Hendricks, Principal, Glen Innes School
What do we do?
While the title would suggest we just provide cereal and toast for hungry kids, Breakfast Club is so much more than that.
Who are we?
Breakfast Club was founded by Steve Farrelly, an ex police officer with a soft spot for cheeky, hungry kids.
What people say
As we have grown different people have noticed what we are doing and started writing some pretty cool things about us.
Want to help?
If you think you can help our children in some way then please let us know here. If you would simply like to donate then you can do so here.

Ten Days of Shock n Awe
Just prior to Christmas we received a $15,000 donation from someone that wished to remain anonymous… and that kind of started the ball rolling in Christmas and then this happened.
2014 Christmas Banquet at Glen Innes School
When we came up with the idea of putting on a Christmas Banquet for 600 … we had no idea how we could find about $9,000 to fund it when this happened …
October Updates
When we started Breakfast Club at Randwick Park School in 2010 we wanted to make a difference and to do this we knew we needed to do things in a different way.
2014 Christmas Banquet
Due to demand from our two new schools (St. Pius X and Glen Taylor) we will be having lunch as well as the dinner, catering for over 600 children and adults.
Updates
From the first school day of the last term we will be working with Glen Taylor School in Glen Innes, our fourth school. Three of these schools are in close proximity in the Glen Innes area and all have school roles of around 200. Their combined total is about the same size as Randwick Park School’s roll.
Sports Retreat
This week Zion Ministries’ Breakfast Club organised a Sports retreat for 6 schools at St Kentigern College. Approximately 200 attended for three days of various sporting games, from flags, soccer, rugby, netball, basket ball culminating in a game of dodgeball between the St Kentigern Students and our children.
