The Winter Lightning Carnivals are held at the Year 7, 8 & 9 levels and involve modified winter sports. The carnivals are run during early Term 2. Schools have shown a tendency to involve their full cohort groups for the Year 7 and 8/9 carnivals. However, if a school chooses to involve a portion of that group, participation is still highly encouraged. All options carry the same responsibilities with regard to staffing and supervision.
In 2020, the carnivals will involve Year 7 students based on a stand alone day. The Year 8/9 carnival will also be held during the same week.
