Organisers reported "a great spectacle" with lots of house spirit on display and "outstanding" student involvement.
A wide range of traditional events was held, as well as a popular commando and novelty course.
Carnival organiser and health and well- being co-ordinator Adrian Dean said the enthusiasm and house spirit was tremendous.
"There were many close finishes and all events were hotly contested," he said.
He praised the efforts of not only students but members of the Longford Little Athletics Club, volunteers, parents and staff for their terrific support in ensuring all events ran on time and efficiently.
