- Up-cycling, PLEASE BRING OLD CLOTHES. Please save old jeans, t-shirts, shorts, skirts, dresses and fabric that can be reconstructed. We have lots of things on hand but its always good for the kids to epicycle their own garments and get a second life to all the things they live but can no longer use. Its a great excuse for the family to clean out their closets.
- Friday Photo Shoots are at between 10.30 am – 1p.m. Parents need not attend – this is a student only shoot.
