Qualifying for this national event is an achievement in itself, with swimmers required to meet demanding qualifying times before competing against the best secondary school athletes from across New Zealand. Our team of five - Jojo Breacker (14), Eleanor Chidgey (14), Dylan Gear (14), Aimee Marsh (13), and Oscar Raos (14) - raced in 18 events, producing outstanding results. Across the weekend, they achieved more than 23 seconds of combined personal bests, a testament to their dedication, countless early-morning training sessions, and unwavering commitment in the pool. A special congratulations to Eleanor, who swam an incredible 6-second personal best in the 50m Breaststroke (not easy to do in such a short race). Congratulations also to Dylan and Aimee, who both earned Top 10 New Zealand rankings in their events, and have also qualified for the 2027 New Zealand National Age Group Championships - an outstanding accomplishment. Dylan Gear 4th – 50m Backstroke 7th – 50m Freestyle 8th – 100m Backstroke Aimee Marsh 6th – 50m Backstroke 9th – 50m Breaststroke 10th – 100m Breaststroke We are proud to have all five swimmers represent our school with determination, resilience, and pride.
