SWIMMING CARNIVALS

School Swimming Carnival

On Friday March 1, we held our annual Swimming Carnival which was full of fun, colour and competition!  With over 600 students in attendance, the racing was fierce and the wading polo was a highlight.

Tate (Red) were the dominant house on the day, taking home the 2024 Swimming House Championship, closely followed by Deakin (Green), Everard (Yellow) and Cummins (Blue).

Age Group Champions:

• 13 Years: Mia Collins and Aidan Peet
• 14 Years: Nayeli Craig and Liam Kleefsman
• 15 Years: Kailey Faulkner-Forward and Fletcher Palfreyman
• 16 Years: Morgan Jarvis and Kaelan Baker-Flett
• 17 Years: Ruby Davis and Luke Tull
• 20 Years: April Ingwersen and Tom Carden

Congratulations to all students and staff for a FABULOUS day!

Success at Yarra Division Swimming Carnival

Wednesday 20 March

It was time for redemption! 45 athletes earned their position in the Yarra Division Swim Team who went out to represent our school.

Individually and collectively the team were incredible in the pool, breaking division records and medalling in many of the events.

We won back the Overall School Championship, which was briefly lost to Monbulk, defeating them 793 points to 587 points. Four of our athletes won 'Age Group Champion' awards including; Mia Collins, Liam Kleefsman, Kobey Jarvis and Mackenzie Grant.

We were represented incredibly strongly on the day and we now have 20 students progressing through to the regional finals to be held later this term.
