As we embark on the new year, it is a time of fresh possibilities, goals and optimism. For our incoming students, although surrounded by novelty, these initial weeks present a distinctive opportunity to commence their educational and cocurricular journey with purpose.

Cultivating Engagement

One of the most gratifying aspects of our 2024 sports and activities program lies in the opportunities it provides for students to actively participate in a team-oriented environment and establish connections with their peers. Newly enrolled students will swiftly discover that Clayfield College is a dynamic and vibrant community, offering rich rewards for those who actively engage. Encouraging all students to explore involvement in co-curricular pursuits each term is paramount. The array of options is diverse, ensuring a unique selection for every student based on their individual interests. We encourage parents to inspire their daughters and sons to actively participate.

Comprehensive Co-Curricular Sports and Activities

The Clayfield College Sports Department has meticulously prepared for an enriching year ahead. Each stride we take is geared towards enhancing the quality of our offerings to students. I am eager to share forthcoming innovations and developments from our Sports and Activities Department throughout the entirety of 2024. Stay tuned for exciting updates!

We are delighted to announce that our 2024 Primary Interhouse Swimming Carnival will take place on Tuesday 6 February. All students from Year 2 - Year 6 will be participating in this carnival. Interhouse carnivals are a great opportunity to give the students the chance to be involved, regardless of their previous experience within the sport.

It is a good time for the students to show House spirit, and we welcome the students to come in costumes that display their house colour. Please see details below as sent out in Parent communications on the College App.

Colourful house accessories may be added at this time but must be removed before the students leave school at the end of the day.

College swimming togs
College rash shirt, swim cap and goggles
