I write to enlist your support for the annual edition of our school magazine, the Mini Steps. It will be published at the end of this school year in August. It is a compilation of our school’s events and activities and it contains all valuable information, records and photographs of the year’s activities, both inside and outside the school. In addition, parents will also receive a complimentary copy of the Secondary Division’s Steps magazine when purchasing the Mini Steps magazine, if so wish.

It is our sincere hope that each student will have a set of these magazines. To make this valuable publication affordable, we have capped the price at $100 per magazine. This can only be achieved by heavily subsidizing the printing costs by means of donations and advertisements. Donations of any amount will be gratefully received.
