After a Mass celebrated by the College Chaplain Fr John Curmi, the college grounds hosted a football tournament, wall climbing, kick boxing, a tug of war tournament and other sports activities and fun games. Meanwhile, Institute of Community Services students performed nail art, a live band played, a car boot sale was held, food stalls and the mobile blood donation unit were set up around the campus.

There is also an exhibition on climate change and stands providing students with information on travel opportunities and participation in EU exchange programmes.
