Teacher Isabelle ODea said the day celebrated the college’s identity and gave the whole school a chance to gather for one of the last times before year 12 students finish early next term.
”We also have our formal mass to celebrate the things we have accomplished throughout the year, and we recognise our school leaders for next year while our year 12 students are still here,” she said.
Students were given a passport and the chance to win a prize if they did activities from each of the five “continents” around the school.
Rock climbing, a giant slide, petting zoo, food vans and music were all part of the day.
“It’s a good opportunity to come together to have a bit of fun and to have all the year levels interact, circulate and try things they wouldn’t necessarily do,” Ms ODea said.
