Canteen Day - 5 November 2021
The daily efforts of our canteen staff and the many volunteers who support our students and our school have been tremendous this year.
We should remember to say please and thank you every day, but on Canteen Day, Friday 5 November, we will say a very special thank you to this wonderful team. Our canteen provides a great service to fuel our students study and play.
We don’t take their hard work for granted, so thank you and Happy Canteen Day!
