On Friday 12 February, the College's Interschool Swimming team travelled to Bordertown to compete against Mount Gambier High School, Grant High School, St Martins Lutheran College and Bordertown High School. The day started off well, with Tenison placing 1st in the first event of the tournament. As the day progressed, the team continued to swim well, with a final tally of 34 first places, 18 second places and 7 third places. The team returned to school with their 7th consecutive Interschool Swimming win, finishing 104 points above second place! Our students were also awarded with all four age group trophies in U/14, U/15, U/16 and U/20.

Our Open Girls Kiah Connolly, Emma O’Callaghan, Ashleigh Spicer and Hayley Pearson broke two records in the U/20 Freestyle Relay and the U/20 Medley Relay. The previous record for the Freestyle Relay was 2:15.60, set by Grant High School in 1988. Our girls beat this record with a time of 2:12.78. The old record for the Medley Relay was set by Tenison in 2017 with a time of 2:29.22. The U/20 girls smashed this record with a time of 2:23.90. Congratulations girls on your determination!
