HOME & SCHOOL MUFTI/GROCERY ITEM FOR RAFFLE DAY -THIS FRIDAY 21 OCTOBER

by Jennifer Horgan

This Friday we are having a Non-Uniform/Mufti Day, asking children to bring a non-perishable grocery item for the Home & School Grocery Hamper Fundraiser Raffle. The Student Council suggested that the theme for the day could be 'Dress Up As Your Favourite Character,' As the timeframe is short there is no pressure and children are welcome to just come in mufti if they prefer.
