Otago Swimming Champs

By Felicia Ward | Posted: Tuesday March 28, 2017

The Otago Primary School Championships were held on Saturday at Moana Pool. Kaikorai School was represented by seven determined swimmers who competed in a range of events throughout the day including; freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke and a relay. All swimmers performed exceptionally well with many taking seconds off their original time. A big congratulations goes to our 9 and under relay team who placed 4th in their age group.

Thank you to parents for helping out on the day and ensuring the day ran smoothly.

Below are the offical results:

Laura Allison: Freestyle 47.09 (38)
