Well done to everyone who helped make last week’s Swimming Sports such a fantastic day!
The pool was full of energy, strong house spirit, and great participation from students right across the school. It was a close competition, with Amaranth taking the overall win by just three points, followed closely by Empire, then Dominion, and Royal.
