2024 Interhouse Swimming Carnival

In 2024 we will be merging the U9-12 and U13-18 Swimming Carnivals into one event. More details and a confirmed date will be available in the next edition of the College Newsletter. This new event will provide greater school and house spirit along with interactions amongst a broader range of students. It will allow for a more efficient schedule and increase the excitement and overall quality of the day. The 2024 House Captains and Prefects have begun planning for this carnival.

 

Volleyball

Congratulations to all students who competed at the QLD Junior Schools Cup Volleyball Competition at the Gold Coast. It was a great experience to send three teams to this event. Many early morning and after school trainings have occurred in the past few months in preparation for this event. This couldn’t happen without the support of the parents who attended, our high school coaching assistants and referees (Taylor Marshall, Monique Smith, Arabella Donaldson, Hannah Taylor and Emma Cusack) along with staff members Lisa Lincoln and Jackie Sullivan. Game results and set scores are listed below.
