Costume Room Closed

The Costume Room is in the final stages of a re-design/audit (thanks to Heidi Dean and Sarah Nappi!!) and is therefore out of action. Please do not request any costume for any reason until our new system is in place. We expect this to be during the end of Semester 2. We plan to have in place a clear system for the requesting and borrowing of any costume from the NIS Costume Room. Thanks for your co-operation!
