District Swimming

Last Thursday we took 30 swimmers to compete in the District swimming carnival. We did amazingly well, finishing 2nd Overall only being beaten by Parkdale and 40 points ahead of 3rd place. Also 6 students finished 1st in their events and will now compete at Division next week. What a fabulous result for the students and the school. Well done on all your hard work at training and on the day!
