Students had a wonderful day this week at Parkinson Pool for our 2023 Swimming carnival! This year we had our year 7s along with our year 8s to 12s who had nominated to compete spending their time not only racing but being involved in a range of amusing activities throughout the day. Students could earn house points not only through the competitive races but also the many inflatable novelty races along with the salmon runs where they had a chance to cool off.

The teachers even got in on the action and raced the students and took home first place on the big red kangaroo, just beating out the pink flamingo who came in a close second. There were war cries, dance offs, and Ms Stott even gave students a lesson on how to dance to an old favourite, the Nutbush. Throughout the day Keera was up, but a last dash by Tharah saw them take out the day as the winning house.

A big thank you to all the PE staff, Mrs Cox and Mrs Thomas who made the day possible. Looking forward to another great Swimming Carnival next year!
