House Swimming

Congratulations to all students who competed at the ASPS House Swimming Carnival on Tuesday 11 February. The weather was excellent and it matched the competitors efforts on the day. 

It was pleasing to see great representation from our grade 3 and 4 students who made up the large majority of the competitors. 

 

I was pleased to hear the house chants echo around the swim centre as the students cheered and supported one another. For those who didn't make the district team, don't be too disappointed as your efforts on the day made everyone proud and you helped accumulate house points with your placings.
