Sacred Heart Swimming Sports Years 4-6

However the closing date for entries to the Greater Western swimming event is getting closer. For those students in Years 4, 5 and 6 who are ‘very capable’ swimmers and would like to have their times compared with other children in the Colac Division, can you please send me the following details: Name, date of birth, swim times and events. Please indicate if the swim time is for 24m, 33m or 50m.
