A Sea of Pink Pink Day spread shades of pink across the School as the girls built up the spirit to raise funds and awareness for women with breast cancer. The day was organised by the School’s Service Captains Emma Burrell (12R)

and Anna Huynh (12E). Funds were raised through the sale of “Think Pink”merchandise, a hot chocolate stall and other music and art activities. It was a wonderful scene of support from the girls for such a worthy cause. All funds will be donated to The Wesley Hospital KimWalters Choices Program.
