Swimming to Sharkdom
During the first couple of weeks of school, the swimming department held swim trials for new squad members. The age range was from Years 3-6 to Senior Students.
The students were asked to complete a stamina swim, followed by timed 50m races in all four strokes, these being; freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke and butterfly. Students were assessed on the speed, technique, stamina and diving.
Congratulations to the successful candidates who are now members of our school Swim Squad ‘The Sharks’.
