Inter House Swimming 2011

House leaders and senior students this year are extremely eager to create a real sense of passion and pride in their Houses.  This was evident in their approach to Swimming Sports which was the first House event of 2011.  The participation levels of all year levels increased again as the senior students led from the front.  The large intake of Year 9 students saw an excellent injection of enthusiasm. All the house and championship events were enormously competitive with houses having various degrees of success in the different year levels.  The victorious houses at each year level were:

Congratulations to the winning House which was Manu Huia.  Whilst well led by their senior students the large winning margin was primarily due to the dominance in Year 9 and the excellent results in Year 10.
