Junior School Sports

On Tuesday 25 March, the Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 classes participated in Come and Try Auskick sessions facilitated by the North Adelaide SANFL. These sessions introduced the students to the sport of Aussie Rules Football.  The Year 2 students also had the opportunity to have a photo with the 2026 AFL Men's and Women's Premiership cups.

Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 students are invited to join the Auskick program which commences on Mondays in Term 2 on the school oval from 3:30-4:15. 

In Term 1, the Junior School swimmers took part in two swimming carnivals, the North Adelaide SAPSASA Swimming Carnival on Tuesday 3 March, and the SACPSSA Swimming Carnival on Tuesday 24 March.

The SAPSASA Carnival involved schools from across the North Adelaide region trialling for selection in the North Adelaide team. The competition was tough, and all swimmers displayed persistence.

The SACPSSA Carnival involved swimmers from various Catholic Schools in SA. This year, we competed in Section 2. Our swimming team all contributed to a fantastic result of 4^th overall.  Results included:
