The best photos from this year’s CapU Orientation and Street Party (CUSP).

The festive and action-packed street party was held on Day 1 of classes to celebrate CapU students and the start of a new academic year.

The CapU Street Party (CUSP) held on Sept. 6 was a big success. Music, games, prizes and the President’s BBQ were part of the day to celebrate the start of a new school year – and the students and staff that make CapU such a great place to learn.

The campus was completely transformed into a carnival theme that included henna tattoos, caricature artists, snow cones, music, DJs, bungee run inflatable and game centres.

Check out the images below from the day and see how much fun was had by all.
