Thursday 20 February 2026 saw the running of the Middle and Senior School Inter-House Athletics Carnival at the Northern Athletics Centre. With a full day of competition and smooth event flow, students from Years 6–12 participated across track, field and novelty events. Conditions were very warm and windy after a chilly start to the day. This didn’t deter strong performances and excellent participation across all Houses.

Two record were broken.  Isla Powell-Dean broke the U13 400m with a time of 1:09:00 (previous record 1:10:07, 2010)  and Macie Peterwood, the U17 Long Jump with a jump of 4.74m (previous record 4.73m, 2019).

Final results saw Fox House winning the day, followed by Dean, Briggs and Nance. Congratulations to all students for your outstanding participation, sportsmanship and effort across the day. The 2026 carnival highlighted the qualities we value so strongly—courage, compassion, collaboration, responsibility and respect. Whether competing for records, striving for personal bests or encouraging peers, our students represented their Houses and the College with pride.
