With 12 activity stations, and a multitude of games, there is an opportunity for all to enjoy the day. Students should attend school in non-uniform in the colour of their house (red, white, or blue). Students should leave laptops and valuable items at home, and bring their morning tea, lunch, water, and sunblock. In case of inclement weather the reserve day for this event is Monday 17 March.
