School Spirit
The Interschool Athletics Meet takes place every year in March. It is not only an external sports event, but also an opportunity for all La Salle students to show their Lasallian spirit.
Most of the top schools take part in this event, and ever since its commencement, La Salle and Diocesan Boys' School have been competing for the championship. In the academic year of 2011, La Salle is the overall champion, reclaiming the title after 7 years.

Famous quotes containing the words school and/or spirit:
“It is not that the Englishman can’t feel—it is that he is afraid to feel. He has been taught at his public school that feeling is bad form. He must not express great joy or sorrow, or even open his mouth too wide when he talks—his pipe might fall out if he did.”
—E.M. (Edward Morgan)
“So much of truth, only under an ancient obsolete vesture, but the spirit of it still true, do I find in the Paganism of old nations. Nature is still divine, the revelation of the workings of God; the Hero is still worshipable: this, under poor cramped incipient forms, is what all Pagan religions have struggled, as they could, to set forth.”
—Thomas Carlyle (1795–1881)
