Annual Swimming Carnival

The annual Swimming Carnival was this year held at Lane Cove Aquatic Centre and despite the sporadic rain throughout the day the carnival proved to be a successful school community event. A celebration of our swimmers and a coming together of the school to participate in a day of fun and enjoyment a simple but telling moment in the school calendar that resonates for all the students as they embraced House Spirit and applauded our champions for 2025.

While there were no school records broken at the meet the individual performances in the pool were outstanding with exceptional results from several girls. While they were acknowledged post carnival as our crowned age champions and collected their trophies, we also took the time to look out from the stands and applaud all the girls who participated and who made every effort to live out their school motto of striving for better things.

Congratulations to the swimming age champions for 2025 as well as overall College swimming Champions. This year we had three girls accumulate the most points from their corresponding championship races and as such were rewarded with this accolade.
