Oberon High School

Making a splash!

On February 18, Oberon High School dived into fun with our annual swimming carnival! True House spirit shone brightly as students and staff rocked their house colours with pride. Many eager participants took part in every event they could, racking up fantastic participation points for their Houses. The belly flop novelty event made a big splash, and our entrants were showing off their best (or funniest!) splashes. As always, the relays brought fierce house rivalry, filled with loud cheering and great sportsmanship all around. Staff verses students' race was won by our staff this year. Congratulations to Tuglow and Werong, equal 1st on 442, Abercrombie 3rd on 438 on their big win. This is the closest in school history.
