The Junior and Senior Swimming Galas were held last weekend. The Junior houses competed in their four mixed teams with the emphasis on participation and fun. Large numbers from both Blake and Drake took part in a really great event watched by the rest of the house and many parents.

The Senior Gala for Years 9-13 took place on Sunday as a finals day for qualifiers of the heats held earlier in the week. There was a fantastic`turn out’ of supporters from all the houses.
Emma Cook, Swimming Teacher, said “19 School records were broken in the two Galas which is testament to the hard work that goes on in the pool and especially from those who attend swim training on a regular basis”.
