swimming sports


At the beginning of the year the senior syndicate had their swimming sports. Room 2 had some finals swimmers who made it to inter school's  There were lots of races and the water was cold. But the cold water didn't slow anyone down at all. With lots of big splashes sending water everywhere. The board people were sprinting from end to end to help the backstroke people turn around.There were lots of races and speedy swimmers.
