Trial Athletics Carnival: Friday 13th June, 2025
School Athletics Carnival: Thursday 26th June, 2025
Diocesan Athletics Carnival: Thursday 7th August, 2025
Trial Athletics Carnival (Year 2 - 6)
The Trial Athletics Carnival will be held on Friday 13th June. This event is for Years 2 - 6 only. The students are bussed at various times to the Athletics Centre to run the 100m and 200m events only. The purpose of the day is to determine who will be in the timed Championship Events on the day of the actual School Athletics Carnival (Thursday 26th June, 2025).
Years 3 - 6 will be carrying out both shot put and long jump over the coming weeks at school to determine Championship Events and Year 2 will participate in these events on the day of the trial.
High jump will be held at school in the coming weeks. This event is not held on the day of the Athletics Carnival, therefore students who are successful will have their points recorded and kept for the championship points. High jump is only for students who are proficient in this area.
Please keep an eye out on Compass in the following days/weeks to consent for both the Year 2 - 6 Trial Carnival (13th June) and the K - 6 School Athletics Carnival (26th June).
If you are able to assist with timekeeping on either day, please indicate this on the Compass student permission form. All voluntary support is greatly appreciated.
