Sport
Our sporting program is based around the House system and is conducted on a weekly basis.
Boys play in inter-school matches at which parents are most welcome.
The Marles Playing Fields are located in Bulleen Road.
Boys are brought back to school after practices and matches unless collected personally at Bulleen. (The Head of Sport and Class teacher must be notified in advance.)
Homework
Homework is regarded as a basic factor in developing sound study habits. Staff will generally set homework daily and boys should record all details in their School Diary.
School Diary
Each boy will receive a Diary which shows major school activities for the year, and will be used to record homework each day. The Diary also contains details on School Rules, Leaders, and use of the Owen Library.
