Western Region Swimming Carnival

On Monday 17^th February Trinity hosted the very successful Western Region Swimming Carnival with participating schools from:

St Joseph’s Adelong                             St Mary’s Batlow

St Joseph’s Boorowa                             Sacred Heart Cootamundra

St Joseph’s Grenfell                              St Patrick’s Gundagai

Trinity Murrumburrah                           St Francis Xavier Lake Cargelligo

St Anne’s Temora                                McAuley Tumut

St Mary’s West Wyalong                       St Mary’s Young

Our students swam like champions and were constantly supporting their teammates and competitors from other schools in our region.

The competition was tough on the day but our very own Hamish Summerfield, Bella Betts, Talia McKay and Poppy Lucas were successful in progressing to the Archdiocesan Carnival with Hamish in 8 years 50m Freestyle, Bella in 10 years 50m Freestyle, Talia in 11 years 50m Breaststroke and Poppy in 12-13 years 50m Breaststroke. We wish both girls the best of luck as they prepare to take on this next challenge. The Archdiocesan Swimming Carnival will be held in Narooma on Monday 2nd March.

We had magnificent support from Trinity families from setting up and preparing/serving food to timekeeping and doing carnival duties over the day. Thank you to all our parents/grandparents and Hennessy helpers who came and supported the carnival and helped in any way to make it such a success. Your support is greatly appreciated.
