Years 5 & 6 Twilight Carnival
- March 27, 2019
Last night, a selected group of our Years 5 and 6 girls competed in the annual JIGSSA Twilight Swimming Carnival. The girls were selected based on the times they achieved at the Years 5 & 6 Interhouse Swimming Carnival earlier this term.
The carnival held at HBF Stadium, with touch timing and Swimming WA Officials, certainly made the girls feel like it was a serious carnival. The highlight for us as staff, was seeing the huge smile on each of our girl’s faces when they finished their race, no matter where they finished. The team work and spirit they showed was second to none.
A special mention to:
- Elizabeth Kane (Year 5), who finished 2nd in her 50m Butterfly event and 50m Backstroke
- Naomi Karczub (Year 5), who finished 2nd in her 50m Breastroke
- Our Year 5 B Division Freestyle relay, who finished 2nd
Our Year 5 team placed 6th overall, with our Year 6 team placing 7th.
Thank you to all the girls involved, and to staff member Kim Christie who organised our team.
