Representative Sport
All students in Years 3-6 have the opportunity to participate in diocesan gala days in AFL, Rugby League, Soccer, Netball, Basketball and Cricket.
The school conducts two major annual sport carnivals, Cross Country and Athletics, We also conduct swimming trials for the selection of a swimming team. These events act as trials for school teams to participate in regional and Diocesan carnivals. From here, successful students can trial for selection in Mackillop (NSW Catholic Schools) teams, which can lead to State (PSSA), and ultimately, National teams.
Students talented in a variety of Winter and Summer (team and individual) sports can also trial for selection in Mackillop teams and follow the same selection path as above.
