The day began with a special assembly, where members of the school community shared insights into their own cultural backgrounds or explored traditions from around the world.

Following the assembly, each homeroom hosted its own mini feast, with students bringing and sharing various cultural dishes.

The celebrations continued into lunchtime, where students enjoyed a range of games and activities.

College media team member Armand Botha said the day helped build stronger connections between each other as a school and with God.

“We love celebrating Harmony Day at ACC, as it brings us together as a school community, strengthening our relationships with one another and deepening our connection with God,” he said.
