Sporting Competitions and Carnivals
One of the goals of the School is to provide all students with the opportunity to participate in sport, have some fun, be active, develop their sporting skills whatever their previous experience and partake in some success.
The School is also focused on providing students with pathways that supports their achievement of excellence in their chosen sport(s), recognising that through participation in quality sports experiences, students can develop personal skills related to commitment, determination, perseverance, support, encouragement and resilience. Participation in a Frederick Irwin Anglican School team demands exemplary conduct and sportsmanship.
Participation in sport provides life skills beyond the enjoyment of the sport itself, including teamwork and developing healthy and active lifestyle habits which we hope will endure.
