On behalf of the EXCOs, i really apologise for this chunk of work.
Initially your work is meant to be given in portions however due to last minute cancellation of CCA sessions, this can't be avoided.

If any of you are in doubts, please raise them.
We'll be glad to help you.

As for the work above, we do expect to see an acceptable standard in terms of quality and the effort you put in.

Please get these things done ASAP, before school reopens.
