5-6 Swimming Carnival

Last Wednesday our Grade 5/6 students made their way to Riverside Pool for our annual 5-6 Swimming Carnival. The weather gods looked after us giving us a lovely, warm day for swimming. This was the last carnival for our Grade 6s as Norwood Primary School students.

Plenty of smiling but also nervous faces were seen in the grandstand before the start of the carnival. Students participated in freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke and butterfly events while some also took the opportunity to have some fun in the small pool.

Participation from those in attendance was strong and it was lovely to see so much determination and good spirited competition on display.

The final house point tallies were as follows:

Wattle: 118

Banksia: 105

Waratah: 93

This means that the House Competition for the year has been completed and won by Wattle. Well done to all Wattle House students!

Students who performed exceptionally well will be representing Norwood at the LSSSA Carnival on Friday, also at the Riverside Pool. Congratulations to the following students:

Grade 5 Girls: Sarah N, Lily D, Halle R, Charlotte P, Millie H, Annabel C

Grade 5 Boys: Charlie B, Daniel S, Kasper P, Sam G
