IDAHOBIT Day

Students celebrate IDAHOBIT Day

May 17 was IDAHOBIT Day -  International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia, Intersexism, and Transphobia.  To celebrate this day a group of students held an amazing cake baking competition at lunchtime.  The cakes were judged by our leading teachers. There were 12 fantastic cakes made by students from year 7-12. The three outstanding winners received hoyts vouchers and rainbow cookie cutter trophies.
