Bentleigh District Swimming Carnival 2020

On Tuesday the 25th February, St Paul’s entered a team of 50 swimmers to compete at the Bentleigh District Swimming Carnival at the Oakleigh Recreation Centre. We had a great result with St. Paul’s winning the Adjusted Point Shield which is awarded to schools based on their number of students.  The children represented St. Paul’s in a manner that should make us all feel extremely proud. They did their best in their events and they cheered and encouraged others as they swam. A special thanks to Miss Jess Walker and Mrs Liz Heath who assisted on the day. 7 students from St. Paul’s were selected to go on and compete in 8 events at the Beachside Division Swimming Carnival on the 6th March at the same venue. 

They are:

David Zhang - Open Boys Medley / 11y 50m Backstroke and Breastroke

Henry Uytenbogaardt - 12/13y 50m Freestyle Relay / Open Boys Medley

Amour Ooi - 12/13y 50m Freestyle Relay / Open Boys Medley / 12/13y 50m Freestyle and Breastroke

Michael Monaghan- 12/13y 50m Freestyle Relay 

Callum Smith - 9/10y 50m Backstroke

We wish all the children the best and congratulate them on a fantastic achievement.
