Swimming Sports

This year’s House swimming sports marked the first time that Donald High School would be represented by two Houses: Buloke (Blue) and Richardson (Red). We were blessed by the weather, and the sun was out with little breeze to speak of, as our sports were underway with the swimming of the Monster relay. It was great to see all in attendance jump into the pool to swim as many laps as they could to earn points for their House! 

Throughout the day there were some close results with all students doing their best. Huge thanks go to all House Captains as they worked with each other and their Houses to fill as many of their entries as possible.

The day culminated in the Community Shield Race, where all six lanes of the pool were filled by a Year 12 team, Staff team, Parents team, Richardson team, Buloke team and a Lifeguard team. The Lifeguards proved that not only can they save lives, but that they’re also quite speedy in the water too!

A special thanks goes to all the parents and guardians that came to support their children across the day in events. You all really added to the atmosphere of the Carnival.

Inaugural winners for our new Two House Competition were Buloke on 380 points from Richardson on 252 points.
