Years 3-6 Swimming Carnival

Stuart Taylor – PDHPE Teacher

The carnival was held at Des Renford Aquatic Centre on Thursday 16 February. An impromptu war cry competition erupted as the students began to fill the stands and this level of enthusiasm and house spirit set the scene for the day. Race after race saw many incredibly hard fought and close contests with parents and students alike, yelling words of encouragement for swimmers in their respective houses. After the dust had settled and the overall points tallied, the results were as follows:

First – Wynn (764 points)

Second – Monash (670 points)

Third  – Cowen (519 points)

 Age Champions:

8 Years – Jack Kessell and Emma Butt

9 Years – Declan Christie and Amelie Mueller

10 Years – Jonathan Levy and Sophie Masnick

11 Years – Samuel Garvin and Mia Gottlieb

12 Years – Aden Goodridge and Talia Rabin
