Sport
A strong commitment to the ‘healthy body – healthy mind’ principle has our students in an extensive Physical and Sport Education Program which provides both house and interschool competition. Sporting experience includes carnivals in swimming and diving, athletics and cross-country and competitions in badminton, basketball, netball, soccer, volleyball, tennis, table-tennis, cricket, football, golf, and hockey. More recently, Heathmont College has offered students opportunities to participate in lawn bowls, road cycling and mountain bike orienteering.
Sport is an exciting opportunity for students to develop relationships with their peers and teachers. A sense of pride in our College is built up through involvement in sport and our students are regularly complimented on the way in which they represent Heathmont College in our local community. In 2008, students reached Eastern Zone level in basketball, baseball, soccer, cricket, football and volleyball. Students reached State level in cross-country and athletics. Our swimming sports includes novelty events where all students are given the opportunity to compete for their house. We encourage all students to become involved in our exciting sporting program.
