Tomorrow will be our Halloween Dance-a-thon! Everyone is invited to wear a school-friendly costume or wear orange and black! Please ensure that any costume/clothing worn is appropriate for school and should be non-violent.  We discourage ‘props’ as they are easily lost or damaged. Students are asked to leave all masks at home as they will not be permitted at school and to please refrain from the use of fake blood. All students will be provided with a complimentary glow stick and treat bag tomorrow for all their hard work at fundraising!
