Don't Forget Your Bandannas!

Did you know every two days a young New Zealander is diagnosed with Cancer?
Canteen (A New Zealand Cancer Society) are as always hosting 'bandanna week' to raise funds for children with cancer. Bandannas will be sold throughout the country at many shops and participating schools. Westburn is once again selling bandannas this week ( Tuesday 26th October to Friday 29th October) outside the senior block of classrooms. There are many wacky and cool styles, but be sure to buy them as soon as possible, as they may sell out quickly! Bandannas are $4 each and all the proceeds go to Canteen.
On the Friday (29th of October) you can wear all your bandannas too at the mufti day! But remember, if you come in mufti you must please bring a gold coin donation, all proceeds of this money will also go to Canteen.
