In celebration of Matariki, MMC students will be selling fried bread burgers outside the Learning Centre at lunchtime on Thursday 6th July. Burgers are $4 each, with a sweet or savoury option. Make sure to drop by and help us celebrate the Maori New Year!

On Monday, the 3rd of July, MMC will be hosting a head shave for the Child Cancer Foundation. The shave will take place inside the hall at lunch time.

There will be an auction for the chance to shave a head, so bring along at least $10 with your mates and get in charge of a razor. There will also be an opportunity for donations to be made to the Child Cancer Foundation, so bring along your spare change.

Many thanks,

Helena and Mack
