Swimming Carnival Fun!

The Grade 3 and 4 swimming carnival was on today. The Grade 5's and 6's have theirs at the beginning of the year, but they wait for the 3's and 4's until after they have their intensive learn-to-swim program, which I think is a great idea. Due to much confusion, Patrick missed going in the 2 lap freestyle race (it was organised chaos I can tell you!), but got 3rd in the backstroke, 4th in the breaststroke, and also entered the freestyle relay and two novelty races. At the end they all had a free swim - what a great way to finish of the year!
Fortunately it was a lovely warm day!

Tired but happy

Let the games begin! Brian and Patrick after the noodle tow race. What a great day!
