Theme Days

Encouraged to dress for the day in their national costumes, the Junior School is full of sarongs, saris, kimonos, kilts, shalwar kameez and lederhosen. The flags represented by the different nationalities within the school are paraded onto stage before each group of nationals offer a greeting from their respective countries. The students learn the importance of global harmony and are spoilt for choice when sampling food from all over the world!

WhizzBangTechniTastic is another annual event enjoyed at the Junior School. It is an action-packed day of IT and Science-related experiments, with students involved in a whole range of activities designed to help them appreciate the significance of these subjects in their everyday lives.

Festivals from each of the major religions are celebrated every year through Assemblies and other events so that the children learn about the traditions and beliefs of all their friends in school. A particular highlight are the biennial Avurudu festivites that include traditional New Year food, costumes and games such as kotta pora (pillow fights) and bunnis kema (eating buns with no hands).

The Senior School has an annual event that gives parents the opportunity to find out what their children have been studying and see some of the best work they have done over the year. Hosted in successive years by the Arts, Science, Maths, Information Technology and English Departments, there are a series of presentations, debates and sketches on the stage and interactive displays and projects in the classrooms, as well as games and food stalls to make it a fun day for people of all ages.
