Swimming Sports

                                  Swimming Sports

Last Friday the Year 5 to 8 students went to the Riwaka School pool for our swimming sports.

It was a really hot day so hitting the water was a really cool way to start the day. Everyone competed in at least two events.  We had a lot of fun and surprises with several new improved timings being recorded. 

For most people their favourite part of the day was the Teacher on a Chair race where each House had their House teacher sitting on a chair with 4 of the strongest/tallest Year 8s pulling them through the water to the other end. There has never been a year when a teacher hasn`t cheated! We had a special person competing in the Teacher on a Chair race this year. Instead of Mr Clearwater - Mr Clearwater`s twin sister Simone, wearing a stunning green swim suit made an appearance.

Teacher on a chair?  Define 'on'.
