House Athletics Carnival

Wow, what a day!

On Thursday 7 th May JMSS braved the cold and wet weather to participate in the 2026 HouseAthletics Carnival.

Although the weather was not ideal and Javelin and High Jump were not able to be run, studentsfrom all four houses participated amazingly and produced some amazing jumps, throws andrunning times.

There was more on offer too with some fun novelty event such as the three legged race and tug ofwar which was also a favourite among students to gain more points for their house.JMSS spirit and resilience was on full display by all involved and I would like to congratulate everyone who attended and hopefully you were able to make lifelong memories that you will have long after you graduate

Team Results - To be announced at assembly 29/05

Students who finished first in a final will qualify for the Monash Division Track and Field Competition that will take place in term 3.
