Pumped up for college festival

KARDINIA International College guarantees everyone will have a ball at its annual KIC Fest food and wine fair on Saturday.
The festival will feature Geelong’s giant Aqua Orb, a large pool-based inflatable that can accommodate adventurous passengers inside.
The orb is one of many exciting rides and activities set to feature at the fair, according to principal John Goodfellow.
He also recommended the giant slides, jumping castles, while cake-decorating, pizza-making, face-painting and crafts as great ways to keep children occupied.
A mass Zumba class for all ages would also be a festival feature, Mr Goodfellow said.
Regular features such as grape-stomping and plate-smashing would complement multicultural music and dance running throughout the day.
Mr Goodfellow said the festival would again also feature a full range of international cuisine including Swiss, Chinese, Japanese, American, Mediterranean, Mexican, Indian, English and Italian, complemented by products from some of Geelong’s finest wineries.
KIC Fest is from midday to 7pm on the grounds of the Bell Post Hill college.
