2025 Secondary School Swimming Carnival Report

The 2025 Secondary School Swimming Carnival took place in the Braith Williams Aquatic and Fitness Centre at the College, spanning two action-packed days on Wednesday 12 February (Years 7 to 9) and Thursday 13 February (Years 10 to 12).

From the electrifying House spirit to the high participation rate across all year groups, the event was a roaring success. The carnival showcased both championship and non-championship races, culminating in exhilarating relays and the ever-popular house mascot dance off. On Wednesday, a spectacular diving display brought the day to a thrilling close, highlighting our divers’ remarkable skills and impressive technique.

Several outstanding performances left the crowd in awe, with two longstanding records shattered on the day. Huge congratulations to:
• Priscilla Miller, who set a new benchmark in the 12 Years 50m Backstroke with a time of 31.96 (previous record: 33.66)
• Caitlyn Keating, who stormed home in the 15 Years 50m Butterfly with a time of 28.54 (previous record: 28.96).

Special congratulations to our age champions:

• 12 Years – Priscilla Miller
• 13 Years – Elsa Yu
• 14 Years – Lexi Whitton
• 15 Years – Megan Chia
• 16 Years – Indianna Vale
• 17 Years – Sarah Tian
• 18 Years – Jaya Lilienthal

One of the closest and most nail-biting races of the entire carnival was the open championship 50m freestyle, featuring the fastest eight swimmers in the school. Congratulations to the top finishers:
