The 2024 Diocesan Secondary Swimming Championships held on Wednesday, 6th March at Corrimal Pool was a testament to the spirit of athleticism and sportsmanship at St. Francis. Our students showcased their incredible talents, not just in the pool but also in the way they supported and cheered for each other throughout the day.

We are proud to announce that two of our outstanding students, Nicolas C and Accalia A, made waves by breaking Diocesean records in their respective events. Nicolas C shattered the record in the 15-year Male 50m Freestyle, while Accalia A achieved a remarkable feat in the Open Female MC 50m Freestyle. Their achievements underscore the dedication and hard work they have put into their training.

Furthermore, we congratulate Jewel A, Luchio K, Accalia A, and Nicolas C for being awarded Diocesan Age Champions in their respective categories. Their exceptional performances in the pool have earned them this prestigious recognition. We are thrilled to announce that these talented swimmers will be representing St. Francis at the NSWCCC Swimming Championships at Sydney Olympic Park Aquatic Centre, Homebush, on Thursday, 4th April. We extend our heartfelt wishes and support to these students as they prepare to compete at the state level. Let us all rally behind them and wish them the best of luck in this upcoming event. Go Team St. Francis!

Finally, a special thank you to Mrs Cerrato and Mr Grant for their support in taking the team on the day. Your energy and commitment to the students is greatly appreciated.
