Athlete pathways

The diversified Co-curricular sporting program also seeks to foster growth and development of individuals by providing pathways to representative selection. Indeed, many of our students have gone on to achieve state or national representation in their chosen fields of endeavour.

Inter-House competitions foster team spirit and active participation throughout the year. Students also compete with a number of associations including Orange town competitions Western Associated Schools (WAS), Independent Sporting Association (ISA), Association of Independent Coeducational Schools (AICES) and the NSW Combined Independent Schools (CIS), offering extensive representative pathways in various sports.
