This year’s EISM Division 2 Swimming Carnival took place on Tuesday 8 March at Aquanation in Ringwood. It was a great performance by our swimmers, with our girls winning the U/14, U/16 and Open division and taking home the girl’s trophy! We finished overall second, just a few points behind Donvale Christian College.

Henry Zhao (8.23) placed first in Boys U/14 Butterfly and second in Boys U/14 Freestyle and third in Backstroke.

Ruan Rademeyer (10.17) placed first in the 100m Open Freestyle and the 50m Open Backstroke, second in 50m Open Freestyle and 50m Breaststroke.
The following Oxley relay teams won their events: Girls U/14 200 Medley Relay; Girls U/16 200 Medley Relay and Open Girls 200 Medley Relay. Our Boys U/13 200 Freestyle Relay; Girls U/14 200 Freestyle Relay; Girls U/16 Girls 200 Freestyle Relay; Girls Open Freestyle Relay; Girls Multi Age Relay and Boys Multi Age Relay.
All our students performed well, and it was wonderful to experience their great sportsmanship at this event.
We have 27 students who qualified either individually, or as a relay team, to compete in the EISM Champions Swimming Carnival on Monday 28 March at the Melbourne Sports & Aquatic Centre (MSAC). They have been notified of their participation and we will give a short report on their performance in the next edition of the Vine. We will also report on our swimmers who took part in the Victoria Swimming Championships that took place over a few days.
