Hello Grads, Grad parents and guardians - the Dry Grad committee has been working hard on organising a fun evening for Stelly's 2024 grads. More information on the evening can be found here: https://stellysdryaftergrad.square.site. The ppt has a lot of excellent information in it.
Sign ups have already occurred and there have been some times at lunch for grads to pay their $20. Grads can also send an e-transfer (stellysgrad24@gmail.com). Now that information about authorised guests is being sent out, if grads have an authorised guest, payment for their guest to attend Dry Grad must also be completed, please.
We do need help so that the evening can run, please.
Below is the sign up for parent helpers.
