Survivor Day

Our students are eagerly preparing for our upcoming Survivor Day on Tuesday 1st of April ! This special event focuses on teamwork, leadership, problem-solving, and conflict resolution, as students work together in teams to complete various challenges.

As part of their preparations, students will also collaborate to create a team costume. Most teams will be designing their own team t-shirts, usually by drawing on a plain white t-shirt. Your child may ask you to supply them with one in the coming weeks—these can be purchased affordably from Kmart or Best & Less.

In addition, they may request other small accessories or materials to enhance their costumes. While we encourage creativity, we also ask students to be resourceful and use what they already have at home where possible. Please support them in gathering what they need to bring their team’s vision to life!

Thank you for your support—we’re looking forward to an exciting and memorable day!
