Sport is an essential element of education - George Sheehan
Fortius Quo Fidelius (strength through loyalty) is a characteristic we wish to impart to students through the sports program at Brisbane Bayside State College. At Brisbane Bayside State College, we encourage students of all abilities to compete for sporting prowess. Our definition of 'sporting prowess' includes the elements of participation, sportsmanship, teamwork and skill acquisition. We believe that having a go and fair play is far more important than winning at all costs. That being said, preparation, training and a willingness to learn and succeed are beneficial in the sporting world. At BBSC we believe that success is a journey and it can be measured by willingness to learn, effort and good old-fashioned hard work.
