Congratulations Jude, Claire and Addison

Well done to Jude, Claire and Addison on being selected to represent the Midlands District Amateur Swimming Association in the Country Junior District Competition at MSAC on 28 October, 2024. These sharks clocked up some super-fast times in individual and relay events and should be very proud of themselves.

Congratulations Oscar and Angus

Well done to Oscar and Angus who competed in the State Golf in Melbourne. A few hours spent on the green to get to this level! Unfortunately, the weather was a bit unkind to the competition and after storms suspended play twice, the event got called off. I’m sure we’ll be hearing about these two more in the years to come. Well done boys!

Division Swimming

Please complete this form to express your child's interest in the Division Swimming Competition to be held at Eureka Aquatic Centre 50m Pool on 1 March, 2024.

There will be an approximate cost of $10 for the event (which allows for swimmers to compete in a maximum of two individual events, one freestyle relay and one medley relay). Please note that students will be selected for their events as each school is limited on entry numbers and qualifying times are enforced. Events and relay teams will be selected based on times provided when registering (this is compulsory) and not all students will necessarily get a place in their chosen events.

This competition is open to students turning 9-13 in 2024. Age groups are based on participants' age as of 31 December 2024.

This form must be completed by 9 February, 2024. Permission and payment request will follow shortly after closing date.

More information will be forwarded to registered families when finalised.
