Athletics Carnival

On Friday, 14 August, the College held our annual Interhouse Athletics Carnival at Ern Clark Athletics Centre. After a very wet start to the day, we were able to enjoy kinder conditions. Congratulations to all students for their participation and enthusiasm. The level of House spirit on display throughout the day was fantastic. Whether it was cheering in the straight or participating in novelty events or the traditional track and field events it was excellent atmosphere to be a part of.

Congratulations to Xanten who took out the Spirit Bear in the novelty games format which saw each year group participate in a range of events against the other Houses.
