Grace students get fired up in the pool
EXTRA extra, read all about it – in the pool was the best place to be during last week’s heat wave for Grace Lutheran College students, with their four school teams lapping it out for victory – and there’s no doubt about it!
Students brought along their exceptional team spirit and fish instincts for their 2023 swimming carnival.
For the year 12 students, dressing up in style to celebrate their last ever swimming carnival was a no-brainer.
There were also some records broken!
William Garimort put on an impressive show for all, breaking the under 17s records for 100m freestyle, 50m breaststroke, as well as 50m butterfly.
