The school-run Athletics Carnival, Swimming Carnival and Cross Country Trials are held for the purposes of selecting students to represent our school in the SCS representative sport pathway. Children must be turning 8-years-old or are older in the year of competition e.g. if a child is born in 2011-2016 for the 2024 competition they are eligible to be selected.
