Welcome back to an exciting term of Sport at MSCW! 

It will be a busy term with both the College Swimming and Athletics carnivals this term and the usual Year 7-10 Thursday sport and representative competitions starting in Week 3.  

The College is a part of CGSSSA (Catholic Girls Secondary Schools Sport Association) and MCCS (Metropolitan Catholic Colleges Sports Associations). CGSSSA and MCCS provide students with the opportunity to compete against other schools in our region.
