Despite the chilly weather on 8 May, the Autumn Blast brought incredible energy and excitement to our school grounds as students and teachers came together for a day packed with fun, laughter and creativity. This year’s theme, the Soccer World Cup 2026, transformed each grade and class into colourful displays of team spirit and culture, with everyone proudly embracing their assigned country and adding to the festive atmosphere.

From the moment the event began, there was excitement across campus as students moved between activities and enjoyed the wide variety of entertainment available. One of the biggest highlights of the day was the colour run, where clouds of bright powder filled the air and left everyone smiling and completely covered in colour. The inflatable obstacle course also drew huge crowds, with students racing each other and cheering on their friends.

For those wanting something more creative, the art activity gave students the chance to relax and show off their artistic side, while the drumming session brought rhythm and energy that could be heard across the school. Delicious food stalls added even more excitement, with Milky Lane treats and chicken prego’s proving especially popular throughout the day.

Although the weather was cold, the atmosphere was anything but gloomy, as the Autumn Blast gave students the opportunity to make memories, enjoy time with friends and celebrate the strong sense of community within our school.
