Interschool Sport 

It has been a busy start to the sporting program in 2021, with record numbers of participants representing the school in our SSV competition. All teams have looked fantastic this year in our new School Sport Uniform and it’s great to hear stories of such fun and great sportsmanship for our school heading out on these days. We have also celebrated great success with the Intermediate Boys Volleyball team heading off to the Eastern Metropolitan Regional event in the coming weeks, good luck to them! I encourage everyone to be involved with our sporting program by keeping a look out on Teams for future sign up forms.  

Swimming Carnival 

It was certainly a warm one at the Boroondara Sport Complex, as we arrived for the 2021 BHHS Swim Carnival. It was great to see such house spirit on display by all of our students, with plenty of costumes and colours on display. After a slight modification of the points system, with a greater reward for participation, we saw a very tight race for the Swimming House Cup. 

At the end of the day, it was Blue House who came out on top! 

The following points were the final standing for the day: 

Blue House: 396 

Red House: 353 

Green House: 214 

Yellow House: 205  

Congratulations Blue House, the trophy cabinet outside the Library has been updated to display your efforts. Thank you to everyone for making it such a fantastic affair! 

Division Swimming Carnival 

Our 2021 BHHS Swim Team represented the school well at Aquarena for the Division Swim Carnival, we had quite a young team this year and it was great to see such youth participating in this event! A special congratulations to India Bretel who was crowned the 17yo Female Champion on the day, well done India. Good luck to all competitors heading to the EMR Carnival later in the term.
