Athletics Carnival

On Friday, 7 May 2021, St Albans Secondary College staff and students welcomed in Term 3 by attending our annual House Athletics Carnival at the Keilor Athletics Track. 

Despite the chilly temperatures, all of our star students volunteered to take part in numerous events; from 100 Metre Sprint, to Javelin and Shotput. However, it was the Novelty events that stole the show! When it seemed that Freeman house were to secure a sure win, Irwin house staged a late comeback thanks to their huge involvement in the Hacky Sack Novelty event. Irwin’s participation empowered them to claim the Athletics House Championship! 

All students and staff should be congratulated on making the day a huge success. We had record participation in all age groups, with fantastic behaviour and support by all. 

A special mention to the Year 12 VCAL students who ran the delicious BBQ that kept staff and students’ warm and the overwhelming help from staff who ran all of the field events for the day. 

All students that won an event, will now qualify to represent the school in the Keilor Division Championships later in Term 3. Students and Parents should keep an eye out for Compass notifications early in term 3 for more information and consent forms.

Thank you to all who participated and made the Athletics Carnival one to remember!
