Swimming

Congratulations to the SCEGGS Swimming team who competed in the Cranbrook Dual Swim Meet last Friday evening. SCEGGS partnered with the Cranbrook team and were successful in winning the Overall Champion Pointscore. The combined SCEGGS/Cranbrook team competed against teams from St Catherine’s/ Waverley College and a combined Meriden /St Patrick’s Strathfield team.

The SCEGGS Swimming team will now compete at the IGSA Swimming Championships to be held on Friday March 14 at SOPAC, Homebush. We wish everyone a successful carnival with lots of personal bests.
