On Tuesday 26 March 2019, twenty of Emanuel’s top swimmers represented the Combined District Secondary Sports Association at the AICES Swimming Championships at Sydney Olympic Park Aquatic Centre. It was fantastic to see such a large and dedicated swim squad attend this representative event.

After such successful School and CDSSA carnivals, winning every event that she raced in, Jade Berson had a very busy program at the championships.

Swim team captain, Jared Elbourne, had a successful day, winning gold in the 50m breaststroke event and swimming a personal best time.

Gabriella Goodridge was on form, dominating the pool, winning three individual gold medals in the 50m fly, 50m freestyle and 100m freestyle.

Emanuel had qualified for six relay events and it was a credit to all members of the school swim team to see these relay teams compete at this level of competition.

Both Emanuel School and the CDSSA had a successful day, finishing in good places on the overall points table.

Congratulations to our CDSSA swimming representatives on a very successful event: Gaija Avshalom, Jemma Bennett, Jade Berson, Dylan Christie, Ruth Durbach, Jared Elbourne, Gabriella Goodridge, Gidon Grunseit, Boaz Hadad, Kian Hamburger, Aron Harpaz, Lucinda Labi, Aiden Kanevsky, Abigail Nesher, Talia Rabin, Danielle Rutstein, Jake Sharp, Jett Sher, Clio Stockley and Jacob Rose.
