Firstly, again a big thank you to all who made the 2026 Swimming Faction Carnival run as efficiently as possible.
To the parents for helping with the timing and to the teachers for all playing their roles, whether it be starting, announcing, or looking after students in the bays. No job is bigger than the other, and without your help, the day simply wouldn’t go ahead. Thank you.
To the students, thank you for all of your efforts once again. Whether you came 1st, 4th or 6th in your race, as long as you gave all races your best shot, then that is all we can ask for. I was also immensely proud of the way our students supported each other on the day cheering for their faction and congratulating each other on their achievements.

Lima, Well Done!

Interschool Swimming Training
Swimming training will be held at Scarborough Swimming Pool between 7:30-8:15am on dates to be confirmed.
Parents will be required to cover the cost of entry at Scarborough Pool if they wish for their child to participate in training. A staff member from St Dominic’s will be on hand to supervise the children for each session. It will be up to the parents to ensure students are dressed in the correct school uniform and transported back to school.
If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask.
