Green clothing, accessories, hats, glasses and drink bottles covered one Tongala school as students celebrated St Patrick’s Day.

On Monday, March 18, students from St Patrick’s Primary School Tongala enjoyed a sports and activity day while dressed in all shades of green.

From an obstacle course to tug of war and the nostalgic rainbow parachute, there was lots to enjoy.

Free Press journalist Djembe Archibald went along to enjoy the festivities.

Here’s what she captured.
