What a great day we all had at the Swimming Carnival! A little chilly out of the water, the pools were the place to be. Ball Toss was a great success with lots of participation and a bit of “help” from Mr. de Kunder. The Year 7’s showed the way with amazing participation in the swimming events and, as usual, the 5 minute challenge and Melbourne Cup provided lots of entertainment. So many students and staff dressed in their House colours and costumes added to the fun of the day.
A special congratulations to our Age Group Champions:
- U13 Max Phelan and Alma Kerr
- U14 Brody Petty and Amy Perry
- U15 Tyler Elliott and Aimee Norris
- U16 Bailey Griffiths and Bella Theophanous-Maddison
- U17 Aidan Norfolk and Maisie Hennessy
- U21 Ben Moran and Hannah Ray
Congratulations to Kara and Sam Dahmen (Clowns), Leilani Zainor (Violet Beauregard), Laura Dangaard (Avocado) and Sophie Clune and Sorcha McKenzie (Vegemite) who won prizes for their wonderful costumes.
The BIG result for the day went like this:
- 1st Yarra 654
- 2nd Castella 520
- 3rd Melba 453
- 4th Olinda 390
Well done to Yarra!
