Please support this by allowing your son or daughter to wear mufti and make a contribution. The funds raised will be deposited via the ASB appeal.

Enjoy the holiday break. Students have been told that after Labour Weekend we move back into summer uniform so the holidays are a good time to check where that
skirt or pair of shorts might be and if they still fit!
WELL DONE To all students who have managed to find summer uniform items (shorts or skirts ) and make the changeover week deadline of week 4. Bus students can wear their track suit pants to school but must change by 9 am.

I neglected to ensure that 'mufti days' were set aside in our School Diary – my apologies. In recent years they have become the main source of income for our contributions to World Vision for both our sponsored children and others in need. Therefore a mufti day will be held on FRIDAY 4 JUNE and for those who participate a minimum donation of $2 is requested. Funds raised will be given to the World Vision Kosovo Appeal. Mufti days will be held in terms three and four, a reminder will appear in the Newsletter prior to the date.

In notes to parents the school provides additional grooming details:
General Uniform: Socks are to pulled up just below the knee and shirts tucked into appropriately sized shorts. Shorts and shirts which are ripped must be repaired appropriately, and buttons replaced as required.
