Colour Run

We wrapped up Term 1 with a burst of colour and fun at our annual Colour Run! It was the perfect way to end the school term, running through clouds of colour, laughing, and just having a great time together. The school's Mission Services Learning (MSL) program proudly announces a remarkable achievement: raising an impressive $1400 to fund four much-needed bunk beds for a hostel in Nepal through the sausage sizzle and Colour Run fundraiser. A huge thanks to everyone who helped make the day such a vibrant and memorable celebration!

Primary Sport

Primary Swimming Program

The Swim Program is an annual two-week swim program for Years Prep to Year 6 in the primary school in which students visit the pool for a forty-minute lesson every day! The students learn basic swimming skills as well as water safety skills in the two week program that is part of their Primary PE Curriculum.

Winter Sport Days

Our Winter Sport Day One was a great success! Our Year 5 and 6 students headed out to various venues to compete in Volleystars, Netball, AFL 9’s, Teeball, and Soccer. All students represented the school with enthusiasm and teamwork, playing exceptionally well across the board. We’re now looking forward to Day Two later in Term 2!

Secondary Sport

CSEN Soccer Championships

Sixteen Year 7 to Year 9 boys were selected to represent St Andrews at the CSEN Soccer Championships. Our team had an outstanding tournament, making it all the way to the grand final and finishing as runners-up with a 2-0 result. Their commitment, skill, and teamwork were excellent, and we commend the students for their outstanding effort. Well done to our Year 7 to 9 soccer boys on a very good run for the Cup!

CSEN AFL Academy

In Term 2, 5 Year 10-12 St Andrews students participated in the new CSEN AFL Academy, created to help prepare students for high-level competition, particularly in the lead-up to the Herald Sun Shield, where CSEN enters a combined representative team to compete against some of the most elite football schools in Victoria. The Academy provides a fantastic opportunity for our students to develop their skills, gain valuable training experience, and grow in confidence. We’re looking forward to seeing how they continue to grow in the program in Term 3.

VSAC Swimming

We are very proud of Grace Dou and Samuel Ng, who were selected for the CSEN Representative Team at the VSAC Swimming Championships, following their outstanding performances at the Term 1 CSEN Swimming Competition. Their selection for the CSEN Representative Team recognises them as part of the strongest possible team from the recent Secondary CSEN Swimming Championships.

"This year was my second time going to VSAC (Victorian School Association Competition) representing CSEN. It was a lot more exciting because I had way more events this year compared to last year. It was a great chance for me to meet new people and many of my friends who I regularly compete and train with. What I enjoyed the most during VSAC was competing with many other swimmers and being able to get my very first JX gold time. The competition gave a very competitive atmosphere with many of my rivals there. Overall, it was an amazing experience and I am very grateful to be selected to represent CSEN to compete in VSAC once again. I am looking forward to the next VSAC next year."

Semester Sport

Semester One Sport was a great success for our Year 7–10 students at St Andrews. Our Year 7-8 Boys Volleyball A team played off in the grand final, narrowly losing in a tight three-set match to finish runners-up overall. The Boys Volleyball B team had a strong performance in their Division 2 grand final, defeating MTEV 2–0 to finish first in their division. Our Girls Basketball team also finished on a high, winning their playoff for third place with an impressive 41-19 victory over WANW. Our Girls Badminton team will compete tomorrow, with results to come. Well done to all students for their dedication, teamwork, and sportsmanship throughout Semester Sport this term.

House Cross Country Carnival

“House Cross Country was an incredible day of energy, community, and house spirit. We were blessed with the most amazing sun early in the day. The morning kicked off with the younger year levels running alongside our crazy Captains and sport department, with smiles, laughter, and friendly competition setting the tone for the day.

“What stood out most was the support — everyone cheering each other on, celebrating every effort, and making it more than just a race. The atmosphere was full of encouragement, fun, and togetherness. Our Captains led the way, helping with set-up, joining in the races, and hyping up the runners at the finish line. Their involvement made the day even more special.

“And in a thrilling finish, Barton claimed the overall win — a perfect end to a day filled with running, laughter, and unforgettable moments. We cannot wait for Athletics Day next term!”

CSEN Cross Country Competition

St Andrews had a fantastic day at the CSEN Cross Country, with plenty of top 3 finishes across the board! A big highlight was Ruby's dominant win, completing the course nearly 40 seconds faster than all other competitors! We’re also proud to have placed 2nd overall in Division A as a school. Well done to all our competitors on an awesome day!
