Craig has donated beautiful red printed polo shirts for all our students and staff to wear every Friday. These shirts have helped to give a sense of pride in our cafe and further build the work experiences we are developing for our students.

Our cafe continues to run most Fridays and is so well supported by the school community. It allows us to build life and work skills in a meaningful and purposeful way, while building language and communication skills.

Thank you again Craig for your support, it is much appreciated.
