More than the fun and relieving stress, the annual Palarong Pinoy aims to create a space for the growing Filipino student community within the universities in New South Wales.


Traditional Filipino outdoor games and activities including Patintero (Filipino version of Bullrush), Tumbang Preso (knock down the can) and many more will bring a day full of fun at the event which will be held at Macquarie University Lake this Saturday 28 September.
