The school commended the learners who were ambassadors of the fund for a job well done and for making their teachers proud.
“We want to thank every person who contributed to the success of the day, as well as the guests themselves, who unfailingly support this event. They dressed to impress and generously bought goods on sale and tickets for prizes.
“We are grateful for their support. We must also thank and acknowledge all the HHS ground staff and the team of kitchen helpers. A lot of hard work goes on behind the scenes to set up and clear after an event. This was an amazing event in aid of a worthy cause,” said Kowlesur and Edy.
