Schools across the country have been encouraged to get into the spirit of Multicultural Round by designing their own jersey as part of a unique competition.
The competition coincides with Multicultural Round and Harmony Week and the initiative calls on students to showcase their creativity and celebrate cultural diversity by submitting their own hand-drawn jersey design.
Students will also be required to write a short explanation describing the significance of their jersey and what makes it special.
Entries will be judged across three age groups and the winners will see their design come to life on a custom-made jersey.
Entries are now open! Entries MUST be submitted by a teacher.
