SPORT

SCHOOL SPORT
Each class from Kindergarten to Year 6 engages in weekly sessions of Physical Education in alignment with the curriculum.  The annual swimming, cross country and athletics carnivals are whole school events allowing children to participate at all levels catering for a range of abilities while also providing a platform to select a school representative team for the diocesan carnivals.

REPRESENTATIVE SPORT

Primary schools in the Diocese of Wollongong such as St Paul's are invited to participate in annual carnivals for swimming, cross country and athletics. These major events also serve as a selection process for Diocesan teams. Children may progress from school level to Diocesan, to MacKillop, to NSW PSSA and ultimately National level in selected sports.

Years 5 and Year 6 school children are also invited to attend trials for positions in Wollongong Diocese representative teams for summer and winter sports including: basketball, tennis, cricket, touch football, softball, football (soccer), rugby league, rugby union, hockey, netball and AFL. These trials are held annually and link to the MacKillop selection trials.
