St Saviour's Primary Swimming Carnival 2023
St Saviour’s Primary Swimming Carnival was held on the 31st of January at Glennie Aquatic Centre. Students from Year Three to Year Six were involved in freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke and butterfly in both 50m and 25m events. The carnival concluded with a Year Six relay involving the four houses. All students put in a mammoth effort in both the swimming and the cheering on the day. It was a tough competition, but Goretti was the overall winning house also winning the relay. Age champions for the day are listed below.
