House Swimming

During Term 1, the House Swimming Carnival was held at the Monash Aquatic and Recreation Centre. There was plenty of anticipation leading up to the day in regard to whether Grandin could do the double and take out both the Athletics and Swimming Carnivals.

The day was filled with plenty of colour, House spirit and enthusiasm amongst the participants. There were many outstanding performances of the day and all students should be congratulated on their attitude and participation on the day.

Competition was fierce and it was tight between all the Houses for most of the day. In the end, Anthony were far too strong, streaking away to win the title from Grandin, winning their first title since 2000.

Overall results were as follows:

Also, congratulations to Oliver Turner, Yannick Kumarage, Hudson Heath and Thomas McCluskey who took out the inaugural Intermediate Biathlon team event, which consisted of 2 x 50 metre freestyle swims and 2 x 1 kilometre runs. The swim team used the event as preparation for the ACC Swimming Carnival, which was held later in the term. The Mazenod Sports department would like to thank both students and staff for their efforts on the day, which led to the running of a successful carnival. Ben Phibbs
