Our Transition Year Students have been very busy recently as they put the finishing touches to their Junk Kouture dresses for this year’s competition.
The students have worked very hard to produce stunning outfits and we wish them all well in the upcoming competition. Thanks to their teacher Ms Lane for his work in helping the students. |
