K-2 athletics carnival

K-2 Athletics Carnival

New date for postponed carnival in Term 3 (due to poor air quality)

Students are encouraged to wear their house colours.

The first letter of a student's SURNAME determines their sporting house.

  • A-E is HUME - yellow
  • F-L is Macarthur - green
  • M-R is Rose - red
  • S-Z is Ruse - blue

During the event, family members are welcome to watch their child(ren) participate.  however, we ask that parents/carers always remain in the spectator's area (due to safety reasons).  Students will have a lunch break from 11:05 am to 11:45 am (outside the activities zone).  Children can spend this time with their families.

The canteen will have soft drinks, water and limited food available for families to purchase.  Please note that lunch orders will be available as per usual.

Participation in sports can help students in a multitude of ways. Physical activity can not only contribute to improving students’ physical health, but it can also aid in developing social skills and improving mental health, as well as leading to better academic outcomes and school completion. Students who participate in sports during the school years tend to have a positive attitude towards physical activity which does not diminish as they age.
