CSRs
Thank you to all those who have volunteered to be a Class Social Representative (CSR) for your cohort this year. The first meeting will be held on Wednesday 15 February in the Staff Lounge from 7.30 to 8.30pm.
There are still spaces available for some year levels so if you would like to join the CSR team, please sign up here. We encourage more than one CSR per year level – the more the merrier!
Please see a list of the 2023 CSRs attached with links to their email addresses. Some cohorts use Facbook to communicate, others use WhatsApp or email. Check the attachment to see how to contact your CSR/CSRs and be kept up to date with social invitations, reminders, tips and hints.
Please note: CSRs for ELC will be included in the next edition of ITK.
Secondhand Uniform Shop (SHUS)
A big thank you to the amazing SHUS team for the first opening held earlier this year. The next SHUS will be on Saturday 4 March from 9.00 to 11.00am in Dalton Hall.
We are looking for new volunteers to help out, so if you have some time free on a Saturday morning or would like to know more, please contact Nadine Power at npower1616@gmail.com. The team is extremely knowledgeable and enjoy many laughs and friendships.
