[Design and Technology] PDT queries figure template to exam, production work on facebook

[Lisa Walsh]

Dear Jacinta,
I have a student who wants to wear an item of her VCE product to our
Graduation night and is prepared to change out of it and give it to me at
the end of the night. What do make of that in relation to regulations?
Regards,

*Lisa Walsh*
