Baimbridge Swimming Carnival
Well done to Bradman for winning the House Swimming Carnival!!
It was a day filled with sun, cheering, dress ups, novelty events and most importantly, very competitive swimming.
Most students were able to get into the pool at some occasion to cool down and earn a point for their House.
There was a great team effort from the staff, getting to the pool early to set up for the big day. The Students paraded in their houses through the residential streets of Hamilton on the short walk to the pool. This is definitely a sight to see with banners, colourful dress and chanting!
There were some great examples of fierce competition, with Archie Dahl and Brennan MacDonald pushing each other to some great performances throughout the day. Our senior students should also be commended with most getting in and completing in numerous events.
We had some records broken:
14 year boys 50m Breast stroke; Archie Dahl broke Todd Dymke’s 2018 record with a time of 40:00 Seconds.
16 years boys 50m Breast Stroke; Mitch McKay broke Todd Dymke 2020 record, with a time of 34:87 Seconds.

On Friday the 21st February, our swimming squad competing in the Glenelg District Swimming championships
The students represented the school with pride. Pleasing to see was, how many students were willing to step up to fill in relays positions due to absence from illness.
It was a very successful day for Archie Dahl; winning 5 out of the 6 events that he entered. As a result Archie was the 14 year boys age group champion.
Dominic Barnett also had a great day, winning the 100m Fly and placing 3rd on four occasions. Dom came second in the 18 year boys age group champion.
Our 14 years relay team won both the Freestyle and medley relays; Well done to Brennan, Freddie, Harvey Mc, Archie.
As a school, we placed fourth overall which is a good result.
These students will be travelling to Horsham on the 26th March to compete in the Greater Western Region Swimming.
