Not all points were won in the pool though, with opportunities in other mini games held on the day such as volleyball, soccer, cricket and tug of war.
Teacher Zane Sutton said it was an exciting and fun day all round.
“It was great to see all students representing their house colours by dressing up, swimming or competing in activities for points and getting involved in dances throughout the day,” he said.
Champions: Grace Kilpatrick, Hannah Messenger, Charlie Isaac, Myles Camin, Taytem Messenger and Amelia Simpson.
