SWIMMING After morning and afternoon serious swimming practices under the critical and encouraging eyes of Mrs Rorke, our team won a gratifying fourth place to Somerville House, Clay- field College and St. Margaret's in the Inter-School Swimming Carnival held in the first term of this year at the Booroodabin Baths. A Blue was awarded to Peggy Dunn and pockets to Sybil Reid, Kathryn Quin, Diana Boulton, Mary Morris, Lesley Ander- son, Elizabeth Cummings, Eve Ha ll, Jill Malouf, Colleen Gleeson, Lesley Forman and Joy Ward for successes in their events. No doubt the extra swimming which the girls did in class periods which were arranged during first term helped to bring about this success. In the Life-saving we were placed fourth out of five teams · entered, but with continued training we hope that next year this position may be improved. The Inter-Form Swimming to be contested during the last r week of term should prove very exciting as members of the School team are evenly distributed throughout the Forms. In conclusion, we should like to thank Mrs. Rorke for all the work she has done for the team. 29
