EMC Swim Carnival:

The 2024 EMC Swim Carnival, a popular event on the school calendar, was held on Tuesday 27th February at Doveton swimming pool. With an amazing turnout of 743 attendees ranging from the spirited Year 7s to the seasoned seniors in Year 12, the atmosphere was electric. Kurunda, displaying the best participation, clinched the prestigious title of 2024 EMC Swim Carnival Champions, earning well-deserved accolades.

The festivities commenced with an explosion of colour and creativity as the Year 12 cohort dazzled onlookers with their imaginative costumes, with the dress-up theme of famous groups. Their spirited costume parade set the stage for a day filled with laughter and friendly competition. The weather was well and truly in our favour, which enhanced student participation in each activity.

The waterslide emerged as a student favourite, drawing eager thrill-seekers throughout the entire day. Meanwhile, the aroma of sizzling sausages from the sausage sizzle wafted through the air, which proved to be an overwhelming success, selling out in record time. The excitement peaked during the splash-and-dash events, with students taking each and every opportunity to escape the summer heat by jumping into the pool.

However, the pinnacle of amusement arrived with the Year 12s vs. Staff novelty relay race, an event filled with laughter and friendly banter. EMC Principal, Mr. King, embraced his role as target as he was on the receiving end of a deluge of water balloons that left both participants and spectators in stitches. As the 2024 EMC Swim Carnival concluded, it left an indelible mark on the school community, setting the stage for future years of spirited competition and amazing memories.  Mr. McInnes
