Next Friday, Year 3-Year 6, and competent Year 2 students, will battle it out at Thirroul Pool for the winning sports house at our 2020 swimming carnival. If needed, notice of a postponement due to inclement weather will be made via Compass by 8am.

NB 100m competitors will need to be at the pool by 8:30am. All other competitors will walk to the pool at the 9am bell with their class teachers. As this is a school event, students must sit in their house team to cheer on fellow competitors where they will be supervised by school staff.
