There were also motivational talks and performances by local musician Kurt Carrera and band The Faux.

School chaplain Jayden Brand organised the event, which has been running for 12 years.

“It’s a great opportunity for the whole school community, staff and students to have a bit of fun, be encouraged after a full semester, for positive relationships to be continually established and to hit the second half of the year with a bit of fresh air,” he said.
