Almost the entire school showed up in mufti in order to raise money for the 40 Hour famine. We did this by donating a gold coin for the privilege of not wearing school uniform. As well as the mufti day, many students also took part in the actual 40 Hour famine, which will hopefully be able to raise lots of money for the children of South Sudan.
