Aquathon
On Tuesday November 5, SCEGGS sent a team of 34 competitors to the CGSSAA Aquathon that was held at Merrylands Pool. SCEGGS entered both Individual and Team Events on the day. Well done to all students, we are very proud of every one of you who participated.
Chloe Yule (Year 10) and Gemma Shennan (Year 8) were our only Individual entrants, and both performed strongly in the Junior and Intermediate age groups.
The SCEGGS teams were very successful in winning several age groups. The Intermediate teams were particularly strong and won the Gold, Silver and Bronze Medals in the team event!
Highlights of the day were as follows:
Junior Team
| Annabelle Jessup & Gemma Munro (Year 8) | Gold Medal |
Intermediate Team
| Matilda Emanuel & Leona Brenton (Year 10) | Gold Medal |
| Lily Cooney & Isabella Lyndon (Year 10) | Silver Medal |
| Anna Slack (Year 7) & Georgia Baker Wood (Year 10) | Bronze Medal |
Following this event, we will now start to gather entries for the NSW All Schools Triathlon Championships to be held early in Term 1, 2025.
