Carnivals

Springwood Public School holds three major sporting carnivals each year for students.

  • A Swimming Carnival is held early in Term 1 for students in Years 3-6.
  • A Cross Country Carnival is held in Term 1 or Term 2 for students in Years 3-6.
  • An Athletics Carnival (track and field events) is held in Term 3 for students in Years 3-6.

Successful students at our school carnivals go on to represent Springwood Public School at the Zone Carnivals. Students will then compete for the opportunity to progress to Regional and State Carnivals.

In addition, we also hold a carnival for students in Years K-2. The focus is on participation, development of fundamental movement skills and most importantly having fun!
