We invite all coaches and managers to attend photos with their teams if possible. Please email sports@brownsbay.school.nz if you plan to attend, so photos are not taken without you. 

WORLD FAMOUS IN BBS:

• Artistic Swimming

Kora from Room Rm 24, Year 6 competed in the 2025 NZ National Artistic Swimming Championships and achieved some wonderful results.

She and her teammates won first place in the Dolphin Combo event. In addition, Kora placed first in Dolphin Figures U12 and was awarded the Highest Score Trophy across the entire Dolphin level. Well done Kora - We’re very proud of you!

Gymnastics

Gabriel from Room 19, Year 5, competed at the Gymnastics NZ Nationals during the first week of the holidays and got 1st place in Tumbling (age 9–10 group)!

He’s been training over 3 hours every single day, plus extra sessions leading up to the comp, so it’s been a lot of hard work—but this paid off with this outstanding achievement.
