Or

  • Students may make their way directly home from the venue at the discretion of their parents.

The event is held on a school day and is compulsory for all students in Years 7 to 12.

The day is an excellent opportunity for the students to display their talent in order to gain selection in the College Athletics Team and to promote House spirit through points awarded for participation in events and the House Chant off competition.

The emphasis of the day is participation and every student is expected to participate in all events. Students will compete in their age category in 2017, i.e. if a student turns 15 years of age in 2017, he will compete in the 15 years age group.

It is strongly recommended that students wear the College cap and boys must provide their own sunscreen.

Canteen facilities will be available at the venue but due to high prices it is strongly recommended that students take with them a packed lunch including a drink.

We are sure the day will be enjoyable for all.   Parents are most welcome to attend.
