Once again, our Interschool swimming carnival was a huge hit. Students who attended had the best day, with lots of fun and laughter ringing out in the warm conditions.
Aside from the competitive races; there was an all house swim, paddleboards relay, cardboard boat race, a find the coin race and lots of points for participation as well as achievements.
Although Sharks came out victorious in the final result, all students were the winners.
There were some outstanding results with a number of records broken or created.
