The Junior Swimming Carnival was held on a sunny day at Prairiewood Leisure Centre on Thursday 15 February.
The day gave all students an opportunity to have a go, with children entering 50m, 25m or novelty events.
There were some very close races, with many swimmers now attending swimming squad to improve their skills.
I was most impressed watching the improvement of our Talented Athlete Program swimmers, who have been training hard under the guidance of our new coach Blake Medhurst and Danielle French. It was great to see spectators cheering their house on. Mrs. Morris and Mrs Brown had lots of fun doing novelty events in the indoor pool. The relays are always a highlight to finish the day, and the grandstand was alive with cheering and support for the swimmers in the water.
A big thank you to all the parents who assisted at the carnival, without their support, the carnival would not have been such a success. I would also like to thank the Secondary PASS students, under the guidance of Mr Kaye, who eagerly assisted on the day. They did an excellent job encouraging the Juniors and helping where needed.
Results from the carnival will be published in the next edition of The Way.
