K-6 Athletics Carnival 2026
The K-6 Athletics Carnival took place at the end of Term 2 and what an excellent day it was. There were many outstanding performances across both track and field events. The spirit and energy amongst K-2 students were fantastic as the girls threw themselves whole-heartedly into their respective events. It was wonderful to see all Years 3 to 6 competitors trying their hardest and supporting each other throughout the day, and most importantly, enjoying the experience. Congratulations to Barton who were once again the winning House. A big thank you to all the staff and coaches for their efforts and making the experience such as positive one for all the students.

Sydney Regional Snowsports Championships
The final week of the school holidays was filled with excitement on the slopes as 57 students from Years 2–11 represented SCEGGS across a fantastic week of Snowsports racing.
The week kicked off with the Redlands Cup in Thredbo, and despite the conditions, students were thrilled to compete in their first races of the season with several already earning podium finishes!
The action then moved to Perisher for the Sydney Regional Championships with the week beginning in some slightly unfavourable weather, however thankfully it brought plenty of snow! As the skies cleared, competitors were rewarded with bluebird days and great skiing and snowboarding conditions.
The SCOTS Cup, where racing had converted into an exciting afternoon and evening event, brought more success with students once again producing outstanding performances and two snowboarding medals!
Throughout the week of Interschools racing, many students achieved personal best performances, while others celebrated medal-winning results in individual and/or team events. Most importantly, every student demonstrated resilience and determination tackling each course with confidence and embracing every challenge with a positive attitude… and a smile!
Mrs Dempsey, Miss Vaughan-Johncey and I had a fantastic week supporting students while also undertaking race duties. We observed school spirit, sportswomanship and most importantly JOY during competition with students supporting each other on and off the mountain and having fun at each event.
A special thank you to the parents who volunteered their time to assist with race duties. Your support helped make another successful and memorable snowsports event possible.
Congratulations to all 57 students for representing SCEGGS with enthusiasm, courage and pride. We look forward to another exciting season on the slopes and invite more SCEGGS students to join next year! Good luck to those students who will progress through to the NSW State Interschools Championships in August.
