Swimming Success
On Monday 4th March, a group of 26 Renmark High School students travelled to the SA Aquatic Centre to compete in the Adelaide Swimming Carnival.
It was a very successful day with the team finishing 2nd overall in C grade (girls 1st and boys 4th). All students performed extremely well and many personal bests were achieved throughout the day.
Our team was very small in comparison to some of the city teams and several students were asked to compete in a number of events with very little rest time. Renmark will now move up to B grade next year as a result of this success.
Records Broken
We also had a few Renmark High School records broken and equalised on the day.
Dylan White: U16 freestyle 25.93 breaking his own previous record of 26.26; U16 backstroke equalled a record of 32.50 set in 1994; open butterfly 27.80 broke a record set in 1996 by G Coulter.
Maddy Long: equalled the U14 backstroke record of 35.48 set in 1995 by C Wilkinson.
Congratulations to all swimmers on this amazing achievement.
Special thanks to Julie Goody, Nicki Gaylard and Sharon Letton who helped time-keep throughout the day.
