Day 1 of the 2025 Como House Athletics Carnival was a great success, with students from Years 1–6 competing in the Long Jump and Throw events. There were many impressive performances, with students striving to earn valuable championship points towards becoming their year-level champion.

The 400m events, held on Tuesday 2nd September, were another highlight, with students demonstrating determination, resilience, and effort as they sprinted, paced, and pushed themselves to the finish line.

With Day 2 of the House Carnival rescheduled to Friday 12 September (Week 8), successful competitors will move straight into the Interschool Carnival on Friday 19 September (Week 9). Due to recent weather conditions, all schools within the SMPSSA association have had to make adjustments to their carnival dates, resulting in a shorter turnaround leading into the combined interschool competition. Despite the quick transition, we are looking forward to the challenge and are confident our students will be well prepared.

A big thank you to all the parents who have already come along to support their children—it has been wonderful to see such a strong turnout from our school community.
