Swimming Carnival

An historic carnival took place with four new house teams competing in the College carnival. Teams were coloured appropriately in house coloured swim caps making for a real show! Well done to those students who did their best at the swimming carnival both individually and for their house-team. Thank you staff for helping to organise and encourage our students to do their best. Thank you parents for your support in coming to the carnival and encouraging the students! A special shout out to Mr Al de Weys and Mr Prins who made it possible to enter a staff/parent relay team albeit only three members strong – but strong enough to snatch the win from the student contingent!
