Inaugural Multicultural Day
We are excited to announce that on Thursday, 20 March 2025, we will be celebrating Harmony Week with our inaugural Multicultural Day. This special event aims to honour and celebrate the diverse cultures within our school community.
All students (Pre K -12) are encouraged to come dressed in clothing that represents their culture. If cultural dress is not available, students can wear orange. If orange is not available, students may wear their sports uniform.
When selecting clothing for the day, the following guidelines need to be followed:
Respectful and Culturally Appropriate – Clothing should represent a cultural background in a respectful manner, avoiding stereotypes or costumes that could be seen as offensive.
Modest and School-Appropriate – Outfits should align with general school dress codes, ensuring they are not too revealing or inappropriate for a learning environment.
Safe and Practical – Clothing and footwear should allow students to move comfortably and participate in school activities without risk of tripping or injury. Enclosed shoes must be worn.
Non-Offensive Symbols or Text – Attire should not include political, religious, or controversial symbols that could be considered disrespectful or divisive in a school setting.
Inclusive and Welcoming – Students should feel encouraged to celebrate their own or others’ cultures in a way that promotes diversity, understanding, and unity among classmates.
Secondary Only:
Students will be able to pre-purchase tokens for food stalls, and details of the available food items will be communicated next week to secondary students. Additionally, some students have signed up to share their culture through performances. This is a student driven initiative and it is hoped that it will grow in the future and additional activities will be available in the primary section of our college.
We look forward to a vibrant and enriching day, celebrating the rich tapestry of cultures that make up our school community. Thank you for your support in making this event a success.
