Runners Club
This year Runner's Club is in its 10th year. We welcome all past members and any new members and is open to all students in Years Four to Six.
St Vincent’s believes in the statement "healthy minds and healthy bodies". We also know that children love physical activity. Runners Club provides a broad range of running and fitness activities before school for our students.
These activities support the school cross country, athletics and fitness programs.
The children participate in a varied range of games and structured activities. This is a fun and voluntary activity with the benefits for these students being much more than just higher fitness.
Musical
St. Vincent’s is renowned for the musical productions staged biannually. Opportunity to audition for roles is offered to children in Years Five-Six.
Public Speaking
Many teachers choose to enter their classes in the verse speaking section of the Gold Coast Eisteddfod. Our school has collected many trophies over the years, including the Maggie Lovejoy trophy for the best overall performance.
Children in Years Six may be invited to enter the AB Paterson Public Speaking Competition.
