What a fantastic day was had by all at our annual swimming carnival held at the Hawkesbury Oasis Centre at Windsor. It was great to see each of the students dressed in their team's colour and got into the spirit of the day.
Students participated well during each event and encouraged their friends to do their best throughout the day. Each house colour cheered on their own team with lots of encouragement, as their teammates swam to the finish line. It was a great day for the students to challenge their physical abilities and teamwork.

Thank you to the P & F and parent volunteers who helped out throughout the day and it was wonderful to see the parents and grandparents there supporting their children. The enthusiasm in the cheering gave the carnival a community feel and lots of school spirit.
Thank you to our 2016 House colour captains for the effort they put into designing signs and organising cheers for their team on the day.
Congratulation to all our students who received a ribbon for their efforts and for all those students who achieved a personal best or tried something new, well done! This year saw many records broken. A special mention goes to Jesse Eldred who broke six school swimming records.
Congratulations to Mrs Byrne for organising another wonderful and successful carnival.
