Well that’s a wrap for our 2019 Swim Carnivals and what amazing days they were in their own way. Students in the Year 5-8 Carnival produced an atmosphere of fun and participation, while the Senior Carnival was a day of enthusiasm and celebration. The involvement of staff, parents and students of all ages made both carnivals memorable.
McCormack once again took an early lead and held it throughout both days, despite a strong second day from Kelly with high participation in the senior year groups. Russell House was presented with the Spirit Award and commended for their enthusiastic cheering and support of their team throughout the 5-8 Carnival.
Madeline Harvey broke all four Year 5 Girls records set for the first time last year, while George Thompson almost managed the same in the Year 6 Boys. And Maddison Johnston-Walker left only the freestyle records still standing for the Year 11 Girls by the time she finished her day in the pool.
Congratulations to McCormack House for winning the 2019 Swimming Carnival. It was fantastic to see Houses committed to getting competitors into each race. This is a credit to the House Co-ordinators and Student House Leaders.
