The College encourages 'SPORT FOR ALL'. The Sports Program fosters participation by all students in a manner consistent with our Christian values and the College Mission. Our students’ participation in sport is very extensive and a wide variety of sports is available. We hope that your sporting experiences at the College will be happy and rewarding ones. The information in this handbook will assist you in navigating your way through the complexities of sport at the College. Please take the time to read it carefully and to review it at the start of each season. This will help you to become familiar with the College requirements to facilitate your child’s enjoyable participation in sport.

All make a very valuable contribution to the sporting life of the College and generously give their time to ensure a successful sports program. Members of the Sports Department can be contacted at the College by phone or email. Early in the school year a list showing which staff members are responsible for each sporting event offered at the College, and their contact details, will be published on SSConnect. This list should assist you in knowing who to contact about sporting events and activities during the year. Many members of the Sports Department work on a part time basis and frequently attend sporting events. Thus, they are not always able to respond to your concerns or inquiries immediately. If a matter is of a particularly urgent nature please contact the Director of Sport. 3 College Sports Handbook Sports Overview The table below shows the sporting activities traditionally offered by the College.
