IPSHA Swimming Carnival

Congratulations to all the students who competed at the IPSHA Swimming Carnival on Tuesday 4 March. The day started with Georgia Cate Baker Wood (SCEGGS Swim Captain) sending the girls off and wishing them the best of luck in the morning. The SCEGGS girls showed grit and determination in their respective events against fast competition. Many of the girls posted personal best times and it was wonderful to see the team cheering each other on in the different races. A big thank you to the SCEGGS Swim Coaches who supported the girls on the day.
