Thank You for Joining Us at the Sports Awards Evening!

A huge thank you to everyone who attended our Sports Awards evening — one of our favourite events of the year! It’s always a privilege to come together and celebrate the incredible sporting achievements of our students across a wide range of disciplines.

Congratulations to all of our nominees and award winners — your hard work, dedication, and talent have truly shone this year. A special mention also goes to our fantastic Sports Leaders, who received their well-deserved certificates in recognition of their contribution and commitment.

We are already looking forward to another exciting year of sporting success at Presdales starting in September!

Last Friday on a perfect day the annual swim gala was held at school.  

The weather was hot. The water was cool and the competition was fierce.  All students had to swim their very best from the start as each final only consisted of four competitors.  The finals would be the fastest four swimmers.

The morning session was the heats, working towards a place in the afternoon session. The excitement was building as students checked the results board to see if their name had been highlighted.  This represented a chance for glory.

The standard of swimming was very high at times.  The club swimmers were having their own battles.  However, there were also swimmers who were there to represent their form, putting in every effort to finish the race and claim points.  This was wonderful to see and shows sport for all is alive at Presdales.

Swimming is an individual event, but they were also swimming for their house. This meant that every race, position and performance counted.

Results

The outstanding performance of the day went to Mia Nelson, she won the elite swimmers race, and we all look forward to seeing her swim path to fame and glory.  Amazing!!
