Dunlop Wins the 2025 Swimming and Diving Carnival!
Dunlop house have won the 2025 EDSC Swimming and Diving Carnival after dominating all aspects of a wonderful day at the Boroondara Sport Complex on February 7.
In perfect weather conditions, students were able to participate in a variety of competitive and novelty events to earn points for their house. The atmosphere across the day was outstanding as students embraced the ‘House Spirit’ dress-up theme – led largely by the Year 12 cohort and House Captains. Overall, the day was enjoyed by all students and staff who were in attendance at the carnival.
After a great day’s competition, the house points from the day are as follows:
1st - Dunlop 614
2nd - Sutherland 570
3rd - Chisholm 521
4th - Bradman 428
Congratulations to the following students who were awarded age group champions for the carnival - there were some closely contested age groups with all competitive swimming events contributing to overall champion points:
12-13yo Girls Annabella 7H
12-13yo Boys Sean 8F
14yo Girls Cally 9M
14yo Boys Ishaaq 9O
15yo Girls Leona 9I
15yo Boys tied Eamon 9A
Eugene 9G
16yo Girls Ashleigh 10J
16yo Boys Christopher 11J
17yo Girls Victoria 12K
17yo Boys Anson 10M
18-20yo Girls Courtney 12B
18-20yo Boys Chan 11M
Ishaaq broke six College records on the day, Sean and Leona one record each. Some of these records have stood for over a decade and these new benchmarks will take much beating in the coming years.
Our age champions, along with a large number of other students within the college will have the opportunity to represent the school in the Whitehorse Division Swimming Carnival on March 3 at Aquarena in Templestowe Lower. These participants will be informed via an event on Compass over the next few weeks. We wish them all the best with their preparation and training in the lead up to this event.
Thank you to all students and staff for their efforts in making our 2025 carnival a huge success.
