06.01.2022 SPECI MO DAY WEDNESDAY 25th NOVEMBER As you may have seen or heard the Specimen Hill PS male staff have been growing moustaches for the month of November to raise money for Men’s Health. Like in previous years we are going to be having a Mo Day on Wednesday 25th November. On Wednesday 25th students are also encouraged to have a moustache. Unfortunately, unlike previous years we are not able to face paint moustaches onto the students faces so they will have to come to schoo...l with a moustache. If all students can please bring a gold cold donation on the day and all money will go towards Movember and Men’s Health. Thank you Specimen Hill Male Staff
