House Sports Day - Wednesday 21 November
Parents are needed to help in the Weigall Canteen between 8:30am - 2:30pm. The SGSWA run the canteen at Weigall for the boys on House Sports Day. It is a fun day for the boys and a great opportunity for mums, dads and guardians to help out in the Canteen and watch the games.
We would love your support in the Canteen - come in and help out for as long or short a time as you have available, or bring some baked goods along to sell (they don't have to be home baked!). Please sign up, click here.
