The sun shone brightly over Grenfell Public School on Monday, 17 February as students, parents, and staff gathered for the much-anticipated annual Swimming Carnival.
The event was a splendid display of enthusiasm, sportsmanship, and determination, showcasing the incredible talent within our school community.
From the moment the first race began, it was clear that the students were eager to make a splash. Each competitor gave their all, cheered on by their classmates and supporters.
The atmosphere was electric as houses battled in the pool, but it was the Wood house that ultimately triumphed, taking home the coveted house trophy.
