Pink Day at Sommerville

What a great day we all had recently when we dressed in pink to raise money for breast cancer. The staff and students all got into it with pink costumes, pink food, singing and dancing and general frivolity. We raised over $700 too! A big thank you to everyone who got involved and organised this great day!
