Misplaced Uniform |
A reception student misplaced his school clothes last Tuesday 23 May when getting changed into his PE Uniform before Auskick. His school uniform, including long blue pants, polo top, fleecy top and shoes, ended up in a school bag that was not his.
If anyone has noticed additional clothes around the house, please contact the school or bring them in to the Front Office.
