Swimming Carnival

All Year 7, 8 and 12 students and selected Year 9, 10 and 11 students headed to Melton Waves on Tuesday 8 March for the annual College Swimming Carnival.

Our House Leaders arrived very early, decorating their areas and promoting house spirit to our younger students upon their entry. Our Year 12 cohort also looked amazing in their costumes, proudly representing their house colours.

The overall behaviour of students on the day was outstanding. All represented the College with pride and displayed great sportsmanship during events. A special mention goes to our junior students who filled any gaps in events to support their teams and win points for their houses.

I would also like to thank Heather Petelo Sauvao, Siale Viatole, Lena Akon, Awaak Mayan and Alakir Kir Deng who organised fun and engaging games for our students on the day, including a very popular dance-off and even more popular staff dance-off. Well done girls!

And finally a massive thank you to our student leadership team and student leadership coordinator Nirasha Pandi who provided the barbecue for our students on the day.

The results of the day are below. House MVPs will be announced at our next full school assembly.

1^st Place – Reed, 1328 points

2^nd Place – Fitzgerald, 1190 points

3^rd Place – Daffey, 1164 points

4^th Place – Glasheen, 862 points

This year, the swimming carnival, despite the weather, was an awesome day. Those who competed in either the racing or novelty events did so with big smiles. Those who didn’t compete encouraged and supported their housemates. Overall it was a day full of good sportsmanship that was enjoyed by all. Ethan Thewma – Sports Captain
