50th swimming carnival held

February 17 saw Henry Kendall High School reach a new milestone when the school held its 50th annual swimming carnival.

Principal, Andrew Backhouse, said despite the less than perfect weather, students attended and participated in significant numbers.
“The event schedule needed to be changed due to a lightning related delay, however, the quick swimming by the students allowed us to make up time and run all scheduled events.
“All age groups were strongly contested resulting in some close scores in the competition for age champions,” Backhouse said.
The following students took out their Age Champion Titles: Angus Gibbs and Kristina Grimley, 12 Years Champions; Ty Creek and Haylie Green, 13 Years Champions; Cooper Schoch and Sanika Nou, 14 Years Champions; Casey Stone and Georgia Muspratt, 15 Years Champions; Kyle Dowling and Jade Sweeney, 16 Years Champions; and, Tim Cuthbert and Katalena Abarca, 17+ Years Champions.
