The school claimed the Under 10 Boys Division 2 title, showcasing impressive skill and teamwork from its youngest players. In the Under 12 Girls Division 2, the Wavell Heights students secured a joint runner-up finish alongside St William’s School, Grovely, capping off a solid performance in this year’s expanded carnival.
The annual BCE Rugby 7s Carnival, which wrapped up recently, was the biggest yet, with more than 1,600 students from across 146 Catholic schools participating in regional competitions throughout south-east Queensland.
“We’ve also seen a surge in female players bringing new energy and skill to the field,” said BCE School Operations and Programs Lead Greg Casey said.
“A huge congratulations to every school, student, and coach involved and we hope to see you all back on the field in 2026,” Mr Casey added.
He adds “I would like to thank Queensland Rugby Union for their support”.
“None of this would be possible without the Queensland Rugby Union who have supported BCE to bring this carnival to life since 2019,” he said.
“I would also like to thank our five regional co-ordinators for the organisation of these events.”
The Brisbane North regional matches were hotly contested, and Our Lady of the Angels’ results reflect a growing culture of sport and school spirit at the Wavell Heights campus.
