Swimmers came out in droves for a chance to swim for a ribbon and points for their house.
There was a splash of colour to match the splash made in the pool as the students from year three through to six took part in as many races as they wanted to.
Some were in it for fun, helping to gain valuable points toward their house tally, while others were looking to make it into the regional zone competition.
The weather was hot, making it a good day to be at the pool, however things turned a little dark in the sky near the end of the afternoon, causing the school to end the event a little early.
