College life - Culture
UNE has a great mix of multicultural backgrounds and students from all over the world. The intercollegiate Cultural Competition (striving to win the SFK – Sir Frank Kitto trophy) allows students to showcase their many and varied talents. The SFK Competition between the colleges is very strong. Some events allow students to display artworks or their writing, others involve on-stage artistry. Colleges catch buses to each event and support their teams. One of the annual SFK events is Performance. This is always really fun. It involves singing, dancing and acting, as well as make-up, costume and set design. Drummond & Smith College residents recently competed in the 2011 SFK Competition and came 1st in Performance Night! The SFK competition includes:
| - Public Speaking | - Theatre Sports |
| - Small Music Ensemble | - Poetry and Short Story |
| - Arts and Crafts | - Performance |
| - Debating |
Each year we also have our annual talent night. – So you think you have talent? Then prove yourself against fellow contestants and be judged by our trusty cleaners. This isn’t just about singing, if you know how to play an instrument, dance, or even write a poem, give it a go. Floors will compete in front of our famous panel to be crowned the most talented floor and receive points towards the overall ‘Best floor’ trophy announced at the end of the year.
