Secondary Indigenous Literacy Day
Students are invited to wear indigenous colours (black, red, yellow) or book character costumes on Wednesday 11 September for our Secondary Indigenous Literacy Day.
A gold coin donation for mufti will go towards sporting equipment for Brewarrina Christian School. Students are reminded to wear appropriate clothing- enclosed shoes, no mid-rift, no thin straps, or low necklines. As a school we do not endorse witchcraft or violence. No scary costumes, witches, wizards, weapons, or vampires please. Our teachers are going to put on a reader’s theatre during LIFE and we will have some guests on the day.
