RSC Swimming Carnival 2017

Thanks to Sports Captains Rhian Lumsden and Harry Norman for their accounts and reports from the RSC Swimming Carnival.

“On Friday the 10th of February, we had our annual Swimming Carnival, and, as always, it was fantastic. The two Age Group Champions were Tarni Cavanaugh, Freeman, and Dean Kelly, Freeman. Some of the other outstanding swimmers were Caitlin Dellow and Fletcher Smith. The novelty events, live music and fashion show were a hit. Everyone looked wonderful in their house-coloured costumes and, to make the day even better, we were blessed with lovely weather. This year, for the first time, students got to play water polo and go on the waterslides, both of which were tons of fun. Lots of people enjoyed getting involved in all the events while earning points for their houses. As determined as Jackman, Mabo and Frazer were, they just couldn’t keep Freeman from claiming the house cup once again. They are just too good!”

We are looking forward to seeing how the Year 9’s perform in the upcoming sports days.

“On Friday the 10th of February Ringwood SC had their annual swimming carnival. It was a reasonably warm and sunny day down at Aquanation with a mixture of novelty and competitive events, from the highly anticipated 50m Freestyle to the inaugural house inflatable race. The year 10’s were exceptional in showing support for their house with several dressing in their house colours and cheering on their team. The overall age group champions for Year 10 were Georgi Clarke and Cameron Radford.  Well done to all who participated and made the day such a fun event.”
