South West Zone Swimming Championships

Today 18 students, Mr Forman and Mr Hillary, and our wonderful parents went to Wharenui Pool for the South West Zone Swimming Championships.

Students competed against their same age peers from 10 other schools. Students were competing for the chance to go to the Canterbury Primary Schools Swimming Championships.

All Oaklands students gave their all and can be very proud of their efforts.

We had some outstanding results, with the following students placing in the top 3 in their respective age and discipline.
