PSSA Teams
In addition to regular school sport, the school participates in an inter-school competiton for about 30 weeks each year. Children from Years 4-6 are selected for these school representative teams on their ability and skill. The weekly competition includes the major games of rugby league, netball, rugby, soccer, eagle tag, cricket, vigaro and softball.
As well, some teams participate in NSW PSSA State Knockouts against schools from across NSW. The school has a very successful record in these competitions, especially in rugby, having won the Brian Palmer Shield on numerous occasions.
