Maddingley Campus: An Exciting Start to the Sporting Calendar
The upcoming school year at Maddingley Campus is shaping up to be an exciting one, with a strong focus on participation, school spirit, and providing students with valuable opportunities to represent both their House and the School.
Term 1 will be a particularly busy period, beginning with our House Swimming Carnivals where students will compete for House pride and points. This will be followed by the BMPSSA and ICCES Swimming Carnivals, giving our swimmers the chance to represent the School in interschool competitions. Our senior students will also take part in the VCE Summer Sport Challenge Day against Braemar College and Girton Grammar, offering a competitive and engaging experience early in the year.
Adding to the excitement, ICCES Winter Tour training will commence during our new Enrichment Period. This will allow selected students to prepare thoroughly as we look to go one better and claim the ICCES Winter Tour title this year.
The term will conclude with the House Athletics Carnivals for both Junior School and Middle School students. These events provide all students with the opportunity to get involved, support their House and experience the excitement of school sport.
With such a strong start to the year, students will be presented with exciting opportunities to represent their House and School, build confidence and contribute to a positive and inclusive sporting culture at BMG.

Woodlea Campus Sporting Year
The upcoming school year at the BMG Woodlea Campus is set to begin with a strong emphasis on participation, House spirit and healthy competition.
Term 1 will be a busy and engaging period, beginning with our House Swimming Carnivals and Junior School House Cross Country events. These carnivals will place a strong focus on House pride, participation and friendly competition, providing all students with the opportunity to contribute to their House and be actively involved in school sport.
Students will also have the opportunity to represent the School at the MPSSA Swimming Carnival and the MPSSA Summer Lightning Cup, offering valuable interschool competition experiences for our Woodlea athletes.
As part of our ongoing sporting structure, it is important to note that ACS Major Carnivals — Swimming, Athletics and Cross Country — will be represented by Woodlea Campus students only from 2026 onwards. This is a fantastic opportunity for the continued involvement in inter school competitions for our Year 7-12 students.
These experiences will help set the tone for the year ahead, encouraging students to stay active, connected and proud to represent the Woodlea Campus.
