2025 Swimming Carnival (Year 2-6)
We were treated to a perfect summer day for our Swimming Carnival at Berkeley Pool on Friday 21 February. Congratulations to all our student swimmers, who got in and did their best, having a fun time along the way.
This carnival is always a wonderful community day, and it was so nice to see so many parents and families join us. Special mention to our parents and carers who gave up their time to assist with running the carnival - we truly appreciate your support.
Thanks to the staff, who went above and beyond to ensure that every student was safe and able to enjoy their day with their friends. We are grateful for your dedication to our students.
Finally, thanks to the staff at Berkeley Pool for providing a terrific service, and to the Berkeley Amateur Swimming Club for their ongoing support of our swimming carnivals.
Last Friday, we presented our ribbons and Age Champion medallions.
Congratulations to the students below on being awarded Swimming Age Champions for 2025!

Water Fun Day (K-1)
Not to miss out on the fun of the Swimming Carnival, our Kindergarten and Year 1 students enjoyed a fantastic 'Water Fun Day' at school.
With relays and an obstacle course in full swing, out came the buckets of water, water pistols, bubbles and the hose! Laughter and squeals of delight filled the air as students splashed and played.
Thank you to Ms Beckhaus, Mrs Grey, Mrs Logue, Mrs Mansbridge, Mrs Davidson, and Sr Lucy, who dropped by to join in the fun.
The day was made even sweeter with a dance, zooper dooper and cupcakes to finish.

Congratulations to all of our swimmers who represented our school at the South Coast Swimming Carnival on Tuesday at Corrimal Pool. Every student represented our school with pride and gave their absolute best against strong competition.
Thanks to Mrs Staffiero for supporting our students on the day.
