Swim Squad

Fifteen dedicated members of the Eltham High School Swim Squad courageously took part in the annual Lapathon Challenge this past Thursday, 9 October. Our students proudly raised funds for the Nillumbik Wish Giving Tree, an initiative that provides Christmas gifts to families in need. This meaningful effort is carried out in partnership with the Lion’s Club, who also assemble food hampers and offer vital support to our community.

Their monumental effort—to swim as many laps as possible in just one hour—was enthusiastically supported by parents, staff member Ross McKinnon, and representatives from the Lion’s Club. The school is immensely proud of our squad’s ongoing commitment, discipline, resilience, and strong sense of teamwork. We celebrate their outstanding achievement and sincerely thank them for their generous contribution to the Eltham community.
