School Photos - November 2021

As usual, brothers and sisters are invited to attend to have their photos taken with their siblings. If you would like to take advantage of this opportunity, please notify the school beforehand and bring them along at about 9.00 a.m., please be aware that there may be a short waiting time before photos are taken. Thankyou.
