Second-hand Uniform Sale Next Wednesday

We will host a uniform sale on Wednesday, 14 October at 3pm on the Top Yard. All items are $5 each. Digital or card payments only, please. The Square site is offline as we prepare for the sale.

If you have any uniform items in good, resellable condition, please drop them off at the office this week or early next so we have time to sort through them ahead of the sale.
