Stratford High School’s poolside was a sea of red, blue, green, and yellow for the school’s annual swimming sports competition.
The day was filled with full-length pool races for confident swimmers and non-competitive-width races for the less confident swimmers. Each event gave the swimmers the chance to earn house points.
Trimble (green) house leader Kate Ratu (17) has taken part in the school’s swimming sports since she started at the school in year 9.
“I remember our house leaders were always excellent at getting the students excited to take part and participate in what they could. Now that I’m in that role, my goal is to offer the same encouragement that was given to me, and be somebody our house members can look up to.”
Jada Puttock (17), the Tyrer (blue) house leader, also looked forward to supporting the other students.
