Bold red and white colour adorned All Saints Kooyong on Sunday 18th of August. The two colours represent the national flag of Indonesia, which its independence was celebrated by All Saints Kooyong.

Indonesia's Independence Day is celebrated every 17th of August. This year the country turned 79 years old.

All Saints Kooyong celebrated the occasion with special red and white themed decorations (which also includes dress-code), cultural dance exhibition, and most importantly, the 2024 All Saints Kooyong Games!

The games consists of traditional games such as the sack race, tug-of-war, and marble race that were played by the All Saints Kooyong community. The players were divided into 4 teams: blue, green, yellow, and orange. The games were very competitive and fun.

We had a really great time where we shared plenty of laughter throughout the games. When the games ended, we left behind our competitiveness an enjoyed the rest of the fellowship together. The day will surely be carved into our hearts with unforgettable memories.

Below is a photo of the conclusion of the games. See more photos in our gallery here!
