The annual Swimming Carnivals for primary and secondary were a resounding success, with perfect weather setting the stage for a fantastic day of competition and fun. The enthusiasm and participation from students were outstanding. Everyone involved displayed great energy, whether they were competing in competitive or non-competitive races, participating in the novelty events or cheering on their teammates. The Heads of House were instrumental in leading their teams, encouraging a strong sense of house spirit and promoting active participation throughout the day. The novelty events proved to be particularly popular giving students a chance to have some fun and be a part of the day.
The competitive races for the different age groups were a highlight, with some incredible swimming on display. We saw personal bests (PBs) achieved and good battles between swimmers, with the competition proving to be fierce but friendly.
A big thanks to all the staff and students for making the Swimming Carnival such a great event. The spirit, participation, and sportsmanship on the day were great.
