George and Will Davis have been completing the “Swim For Sick Kids” challenge to raise awareness and funds for Ronald McDonald house this November. 

George made a pledge to swim 36kms and has managed to complete 53kms

Will made a pledge to swim 15kms and has managed to complete 23kms

Giving the boys an impressive total of 76kms collectively.  They have also raised nearly $2000 for the cause. They have put their heart and soul into the challenge but continue to say that what they are doing is not as hard as what the kids in the hospital are going through.

She also attended the Australian Gymnastics Competition (AGC) in Wollongong and placed in the top 10 for her 4 disciplines and was then chosen to attend the AGC State Championships which she again placed in the top 10 for all her events, this was exceptional as she was competing in the level higher than she normally competes.
