Swimming Carnival Program
Rough Times of the Day
Some things to note for the day:
- Students will receive a ribbon for the event in which they race. Champion Boy/ Girl will be based on heat times in 50m events excluding Open Butterfly and Open 100m Freestyle.
- Interschool selection will be based on 50m events, as well as 100m events. 25m events will go towards faction points.
- Students are not allowed to request to be in other races on the day of the carnival. The events in the program are final. I will have the information parents provided on the Microsoft Form available to me on the day to cross check.
- This year, we will have a chief judge watching all races. Their job will be to adjudicate all races. Students will be taken through this information the day prior to the carnival.
- For some of the races, I have had to mix year groups to avoid having only one student in the race. I have spoken to each student who it will involve already. Students will be awarded points for their faction and given ribbons according to where they finished in their year level. I have put students in Year 3 & 4 together, and students in Year 5 & 6 together where possible.
- A break for lunch will be had please check the program. Students can eat their morning tea throughout the day.
- On the day of the carnival, photos or videos should not be taken during races.
Any questions please contact me.
