Year 7-12 Swim Carnival (Monday, Week 3)

The Year 7-12 Swim Carnival is on Monday of Week 3 (8^th February) at the Nambour Aquatic Centre. All Year 7-12 students are required to attend. There will be a range of competitive and house participation events, so all students will have a chance to swim for their house on the day. House trials will be held on Friday this week. Results will be posted on the sport notice board and on Schoology by Monday 1^st February.

As the Nambour pool is only eight lanes, we will be running each event in ‘heats’ from which age champion points (and places in the school team) will be awarded to the overall fastest swimmers across all heats. Therefore, it doesn’t matter which race you are in, everyone has a chance to make the team, based on fastest overall times.

Please note that students can only wear Pacific race swimmers, Pacific board shorts, Pacific skins, personal skins (black only) or club race swimmers when swimming. As a last resort, students may wear PE shorts for house point events, but all must be dry before boarding buses.

On the day, all students will be required to come to school wearing their house shirts. Everyone will need to assemble at school by 8.25am in PCG groups and should only apply face paint, zinc, and supporters dress up once at the aquatic centre.

Any parents who are willing to volunteer as timekeepers can leave their name with Mr Mark Hauser prior to the carnival.
