The College community hosted a wonderful Spring Fair last Saturday. Many of our families, their friends and some of our neighbours enjoyed student music performances, stalls, food, rides and even watching the Principal “get dunked” by people young and old who threw balls at a target which saw me drop into a pool of water!
As I have mentioned in previous newsletter articles, the book of Ecclesiastes in the Bible refers to there being a time for a range of things. At RHAC, there is a time for disciplined, quiet learning, a time for interactive learning and a time to simply get together and have fun.
To some people, a school Principal talking about the value and importance of fun may seem a little trite. While God made us to be individuals who work hard and set goals to achieve and improve, he equally designed us to enjoy each other’s company. Relationships through smiles and laughter are important.
The Spring Fair has run once every two years for many years at RHAC (apart from a break during Covid) and relies on the perceptive hard work of parent volunteers. There were some parents who contributed on the day and others who invested many months of planning to make the day successful. I am thankful and indebted to every parent, friend, student and staff member who contributed.
