Canterbury Swimming Sports

Natasha Fraser —

We had 11 children represent Halswell School and the Lincoln Zone at the Canterbury Swimming Sports on Thursday 8th of April at the Selwyn Aquatic Centre.

We had a great day out at the Selwyn Aquatic Centre on Thursday, with the other competitors from all over Canterbury! All 11 swimmers from Year 5 to 8 showed what incredible Achievers and Versatile Players they are, trying their best at all times which followed in awesome results and personal bests throughout the day. They showed great sportsmanship and were so patient waiting for their races in such a big group of students. A big thank you to the parents who helped out with transport - we really appreciate you!
