From the Pool Deck:
It wasn’t just about medals – our team showcased what it means to compete with integrity and in the right spirit. They supported one another, cheered passionately from the sidelines, and represented our school with pride and positivity.
This result is also a credit to the students and parents who have supported our swimmers during training and led them with purpose and encouragement on the day. Thank you for the early mornings and the unwavering enthusiasm.
The ACC carnival is a major highlight on the sporting calendar, and this year’s event has truly been one to remember. We couldn’t be prouder of our students and the way they came together to achieve something remarkable. As a result of the win, we are now moving up into I division next year! Let’s continue to build on this momentum as we move through the rest of the sporting year! Well done, King’s – champions in and out of the water!
