Swimming Sports

Gwen tells a little about our Swimming Sports day on Tuesday. It was great to see everyone stepping up to their own personal challenges.



On the 6th March the teachers were all ready to have a busy day of swimming sports. We were all sorted at the pool in house colours, blue, red, green and gold. Mr Peart (the boss of the day!) called out everyone that was going to swim first. They blasted off and Miss Porter and Steel gave out cards to those who came first, second, third and fourth.

We did races with freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke and butterfly as well as flutter board races and sculling races. It took over three hours to get through all the races.

When the day was nearly over we had the relay races with each house entering a team. Kowhai won the relay race.

I think that it was great you used Smilebox to show photos from the day as well, really enjoyed not only reading about the event but seeing the pictures of it too.
