Track & Field Carnival

In the middle of a very busy Term 2 was one of the pinnacle House events of the year, the Track and Field Carnival once again it was a highly competitive competition which was held over 1 and a half days with students representing their Houses with the hope of making it through to the Oceanic District finals.

The Oval was a sea of Green, Yellow, Red and Blue as students dressed up in their House colours and took part in the march past, where we saw nearly 2000 students parading around the track.

The standard of competition was as high as ever with many students achieving PB’s throughout the day in the different events. To ensure that all students were catered for and entertained, PBC had a number of ‘alternative activities’ such as a Ninja climbing wall, bubble soccer and 2 giant inflatable obstacle courses.

The atmosphere throughout the day on the oval was electric and one which will stay in the memories for years to come. A change this year saw the introduction of 100m finals at the end of the day where PBC showcased their fastest students in what was an amazing spectacle.

After a long day of competing the total points were calculated and the 2019 Track and Field House Champions were the Vikings who managed to win the event for the second year running, with the Spartans coming a close second and  Phoenicians and Athenians coming 3rd and 4^th respectively. Congratulations to the Viking House and also to all of our PBC students that took part in the day and we wish our athletes good luck as they go on to compete at District finals in week 9 at Griffith University.
