In September 2016, seven of our top swimmers travelled to Wellington to compete in the National Schools Swimming Champs (Emma Brooks, Sarah Brooks, Claudia Griffin, Simone Lusby, Summer Miln, Rebecca Smolcic and Emily Whitehead). They had an outstanding weekend and came away overall in 9th out of 71 places for Girls schools (and with only 7 swimmers this is a great feat).
