Katikati College held its annual swimming sports on Wednesday 22nd February. With an amazing calibre of new and experienced swimmers, it was a fiercely contested carnival of swimming with seven records broken during the day.
The strength and improvement showing through the students who have trained all summer with Junior Surf was apparent. The next level of competition for the top swimmers will be the Thames Valley Secondary School Champs for our Year 9-13 and the BOP Zone Champs for our Year 7 & 8's.
