It’s all about school spirit at Ayr State High School with each of the athletic and swimming carnivals preceded by a special Spirit Stick event where each House Group vies for the prestigious title.
This week the Spirit Stick competition took the theme of a dance-off and students were tasked with creating a performance around ‘Battle of the Decades’ where each House Group was given a specific decade to use as inspiration.
Groups of performers were made up of every age-group from Year 7 right through to Year 12 and they each took to the stage to dance and lip-sync from their chosen decade.
The event culminated in each group chanting their war cry and gearing up some good-natured competition ahead of the carnival at the end of the week.
Deputy Principal Courtney Carrigan said she loved the event and appreciated everyone participating.
“It was great to see everyone get involved and showcase their spirits,” she said.
There are almost 560 students at Ayr State High School and there are four house groups - Banks, Cook, MacQuarrie and Phillip.
The Spirit Stick will be awarded this Friday at the Athletics Carnival to the House Group that showed the most spirit.
