Inter-House Swimming Carnival Programs
Unfortunately due to the very limited space available around our pool, we are unable to accommodate spectators at our Inter-House Swimming Carnivals
Event details:
- Races are by Year Level (not Age)
- Students that require a kickboard or noodle will be allowed to use one for support.
- Students self-nominate for the events by proceeding to the marshalling area when the events are called.
- We are encouraging all students to only swim the strokes which they are capable of completing with confidence. All students are encouraged and will be supported to participate in Freestyle races as a minimum.
- Points are awarded to all students (houses) for each race.
- The aim of the carnival is for all students to participate and enjoy the experience of competition.
- No finals or age champions are awarded – House points are accumulated over all year levels towards the House trophy (awarded after concluding carnivals for all year levels).
- We encourage students in Prep, Year 1, and Years 4 to 6 to wear their togs under uniforms to school.
