What a wonderful day and celebration of culture and colour. While the rain fell at first, and the concert began indoors, when the skies cleared we were all able to celebrate together. There is so much to be gained for celebrating the rich cultural tapestry that is Macarthur Girls High School.

Look out for our newsletter tomorrow for more wonderful pictures.

After their first night away from home, Year 7 students have conquered a range of challenges. Some students have gone to new heights they have never seen before on activities like high ropes and rock climbing, while others put their balancing and collaborative skills to work in canoeing. We finished the night with games, a disco and scary stories around the campfire. We are looking forward to Day 2!
