Athletics at Full Tilt

The Girls’ School Athletics Days in Term 4 once again captured the energy, determination, and House spirit that defines this much-loved sporting event. 

The Years 0–2 students competed on the Top Field with the youngest athletes sprinting, jumping, and throwing their way through a rotation of activities that balanced friendly competition with fun. 

Meanwhile, the Years 3–8 girls took to Lloyd Elsmore Park, where performances across the track and field demonstrated skill, strength, and speed. Overall, it was Wishart that claimed the House Athletics cup, for their strong performances across the year levels.
