Making a Splash
The year 5 and 6 entered the pool with a splash when they finished the year with their inter-house swimming gala. During the afternoon the swimmers showed off their technique in individual races of front crawl, backstroke, breaststroke and butterfly. Some new and exciting races were added this year that included water-polo races, body-board relays, swimming through a hoop races and 2 swimmers to a noodle races. Our junior swimmers took on the medley relay challenge and our year 6 swimmers competed in a 4 x 50 freestyle relay. The climax of the year 6 afternoon was the ‘dress up the house captain’ where swimmers had to bring different items for the house captain to dress up in. After the event the scores were calculated and there was only 1 point that separated 2nd and 3rd place.
