UNITE Week

You are here

Next week is our annual College UNITE Week. It is a wonderful celebration of our cultural diversity. Each day students will have the opportunity to engage in activities that promote positive conversations about their cultural background. There will also be special assemblies in both our Junior and Senior schools encouraging an atmosphere of celebration and inclusivity.

On Monday 24 June, Junior School students are invited to arrive to College wearing an outfit or article of clothing that represents their cultural background. On Friday 28 June, Senior School students are invited to wear an outfit or article of clothing that represents their cultural background. This could range from full traditional dress, an item of clothing, colours of their national flag or a sporting jersey from their national team. If students do not have any cultural items to wear, they are encouraged to wear the colour orange, as this is the national colour of Harmony Day in Australia.

Please note: This day is NOT a mufti or free dress day. If students choose not to wear any of the above mentioned, they are to arrive in their full winter College uniform or sports uniform only.
