Please find attached the information for the 2022 Faction Swimming Carnival, which will be held at Bayswater Waves Swimming Pool on Friday, 14th October, from 9:45am. Please check this carefully and get in touch with me if you have any queries and I will cross check against the information I have via the form you filled out at the start of the year.
If you are available to help on the day we still require lots of parent helpers. If you can and you have not already been in contact with me please email me at mary.elder@cewa.edu.au
Swimming Carnival Program
Rough Times of the Day
Some things to note for the day:
- Students will receive a ribbon for the event in which they race. Champion Boy/ Girl will be based on heat times in 50m events excluding Open Butterfly and Open 100m Freestyle.
- Interschool selection will be based on 50m events, as well as 100m events. 25m events will go towards faction points.
- Students are not allowed to request to be in other races on the day of the carnival. The events in the program are final. I will have the information parents provided on the Microsoft Form available to me on the day to cross check.
- This year, we will have a chief judge watching all races. Their job will be to adjudicate all races. Students will be taken through this information the day prior to the carnival.
- For some of the races, I have had to mix year groups to avoid having only one student in the race. I have spoken to each student who it will involve already. Students will be awarded points for their faction and given ribbons according to where they finished in their year level. I have put students in Year 3 & 4 together, and students in Year 5 & 6 together where possible.
- A break for lunch will be had please check the program. Students can eat their morning tea throughout the day.
- On the day of the carnival, photos or videos should not be taken during races.
Any questions please contact me.
