Back again, with Capertee this time.

What a wonderful day we had for our small schools swimming carnival at Lithgow Pool on Monday, February 17! We joined together with Cullen Bullen, Megalong and Capertee schools. It was great to see all the students having a go at our fun novelty races. We then had plenty of fierce competition in our 25m and 50m races as well. It was particularly wonderful to see so many parents and teachers involved. Everyone helped out with timing races and participating in the pool events. Many thanks must go to Mrs Healey for her terrific organisation!

Oberon High School Swimming Carnival is Making a Splash!

What a fantastic day we're having at the Oberon High School Swimming Carnival! The sun is shining, the races are fierce, and the house spirit is on full display! It's incredible to see so many students diving in, having a go, and earning valuable points for their houses—every swim, splash, and cheer is making a difference! Rumour has it... there might be a teacher V student race at the end of the day! Will they glide through the water like Olympians or sink like stones? Stay tuned to find out! Keep up the awesome energy, Oberon! Let's see which house will take home the glory!
