Term 1 Sport at CBHS Lewisham has been highlighted by outstanding achievement, resilience, and strong school spirit across Basketball, Touch Football, and Swimming.

The SCS Grand Finals for Basketball and Touch Football provided a thrilling conclusion to the season, with all four matches showcasing determination and Lewisham pride. A standout moment was the Senior Touch Football team, who broke a long-standing drought to claim the premiership—an achievement that reflects their perseverance and commitment throughout the season. Similarly, the Intermediate B Basketball team celebrated a well-earned championship victory, also ending a drought and marking a significant milestone for the program.

Other teams displayed commendable efforts in their respective Grand Finals. The Intermediate A Basketball team pushed their opponents to the limit, narrowly losing in a hard-fought overtime battle, while the Senior B Basketball team, despite their best efforts, were unable to secure the win on the day. Across all teams, the commitment, sportsmanship, and determination shown by our students were exemplary and a credit to the school.

In the pool, CBHS Lewisham was proudly represented by 13 students at the SCS Swimming Championships held on 23 March. The team delivered an exceptional performance, achieving an impressive medal tally and demonstrating both individual excellence and team success.
