This project serves as a continuation of the schoolโ€™s ‘Legacy Plaque’ project featured on the perimeter wall of our school and will provide additional opportunity for alumni, staff, learners and families to make their long-lasting mark and to become part of Union history, at the same time boosting support for Unionโ€™s fundraising endeavours.
