On Thursday the 20^th of February, we had our combined swimming carnival with Bayanami, Parramatta West and Parramatta North Public School at Parramatta Aquatic Centre. Although the weather looked a little cloudy and the water was a little cold, students swam wonderfully! The first stroke to be swam was freestyle, starting off with the 8 year old boys and finishing with the 12 year old girls. Students had to remember to come up for air to breathe! It was followed by breaststroke, backstroke and finally butterfly. Once the 50m races were complete, it was time to move on to the 100m freestyle and individual medley which proved to be tiring! It was nice to see students from our school make some new friends with students from our neighbouring schools. Everyone enjoyed cheering on their competitors and supporting their friends in their races. Thank you to all the parents who joined us for the day. Notes for Zone Swimming have been handed out to students, and we look forward to our competitors competing against other schools on Wednesday the 5^th of March.
