Junior Raffle for Pool Diving Blocks

The Kinross Wolaroi School swimming program is a tremendous source of pride and accomplishment for our students, Swim Club members, and the wider community. While our swimming facilities underwent significant improvements in 2023, there is still work to be done. The funds raised from this raffle will be directed towards the installation of new swimming blocks, further enhancing our program and ensuring that our swimmers have access to top-quality equipment for their training and competitions.

 

Kinross Wolaroi School's goal is to raise $44,000 to install eight new Omega starting blocks at the Eric Solling Pool. One generous family has already committed to donating two blocks, and the P&F is also donating one block. However, we need the support of our entire community to reach our goal. Every contribution, no matter the size, brings us closer to providing a world class experience for our swimmers.

 

The pool is used by every student in the school at some point in their school life. It is home to the Kinross Wolaroi School swim school, swimming squads, and the nationally recognised swim team. It is also used extensively by the Junior School for learn-to-swim sessions and the swimming carnival.

 

We sincerely thank you for any support you can give for this important project. Please use the link below to purchase your tickets or consider making a tax deductible donation:

Donating a starting block offers a unique opportunity to leave a lasting legacy in our school’s swimming history. Each starting block, valued at $5,500, comes with the option to add an engraved plaque. This can be a meaningful way to commemorate a special occasion, give a unique gift, or honor a loved one. 

 

All donations over $2 are fully tax-deductible, and every dollar counts. To make your donation go to: https://www.trybooking.com/au/donate/kwsswimming2024
