Mortlake Public School has a strong tradition of sporting excellence, offering a variety of sports programs, including participation in the Primary School Sports Association (PSSA), the Premier’s Sporting Challenge, and a range of gala days throughout the year.
On Sport Day (Friday), students wear their sport uniform and comfortable sport shoes. The school delivers inclusive, well-planned, and enjoyable physical activities for all students.
Mortlake Public School are proud members of the Western Suburbs PSSA (WSPSSA). Visit the WSPSSA website to explore the sports played in our zone, access rules for each sport, and view individual team draws.
PSSA is a program that offers students the chance to represent their school in competitive inter-school sports, promoting teamwork, skill development, and sportsmanship.
The competition provides students in years 3-6 with the opportunity to participate in winter and summer sports.
Our Sports House System
At Mortlake Public School, every student is proudly placed into one of our four Sports Houses: Macarthur, Phillip, Wentworth, or Parkes. This system plays a key role in school life, fostering a strong sense of community, teamwork, and school spirit.
We aim to keep family traditions alive by placing siblings - and even children of former students - into the same house whenever possible.
The house system adds excitement and friendly rivalry to school events such as swimming, athletics, and cross country carnivals. It’s not just about competition - it's about connection, pride, and being part of something bigger.
