Ceprnich added that as part of the school community, the Parent Representative Council with the support of the school management felt it was vital to play their part.
Ceprnich said the drive had been held at the school once a term for a number of years. It is usually held in the school’s foyer, however, due to Covid-19, it had been moved to the parking area, which had proved to be a great success.
