At St Thomas Goodwood our students from Years 4-7 participate in a number of South Australian Catholic Primary School Sports Association (SACPSSA) carnivals.

'The South Australian Catholic Primary School Sports Association aims to promote the philosophy of good sportsmanship, to teach students how to win well and lose graciously, and to foster companionship between competitors while promoting a healthy active lifestyle. Offering a wide variety of team and individual sports carnivals, students are encouraged to participate and compete in the carnivals held throughout the calendar year'

These carnivals include; Cross Country, Athletics, Swimming, Touch Football, Netball and European Handball.

Physical Education lessons allow for the development of skills, game sense and teamwork in the lead up to each carnival.
