House Swimming Carnival

The House Swimming Carnival is coming up for all students on Wednesday March 13 at the HBF Challenge Stadium Indoor Pool. The Carnival is the first whole school House competition for the year and is an opportunity for students to compete in races and novelty events and to support and socialise with their peers early in the year. Normal school timetable is suspended on the day with all students attending. Results from the Carnival will assist in the selection of our school swimming squad that will compete in the Division 1 SSWA Champion School Swimming Carnival on Tuesday March 26. Before school swimming training is not occurring this year and training for the interschool squad will take the form of a Tri-Meet with other schools.

Information and permission for the House Swimming Carnival will be sent out to parents this week. It would be very much appreciated if parents reply to the student invitation to attend the carnival promptly. Year 7 students will be briefed about the carnival during Physical Education lessons. Parents are welcome to attend the carnival and all information will be provided on Compass. As the House Swimming Carnival occurs on a Wednesday (usual finish time 2.30pm) and students will return to school at approximately 3.30pm, students will be compensated with an early finish on Tuesday, March 12 with school finishing at 2.32pm.
