Railway Relay Cup 2024

It was a pleasure to take four of our confident swimmers to be the first to participate in the Railway Relay Cup.  This is a mini competition that will occur yearly against Durie Hill School, Churton School and ourselves, Whanganui East School.  The competition was originally between the Aramoho Swim Club and the Whanganui East Swim Club. Toddy Sollit wanted to bring this competition back and chose our three schools to participate in this yearly competition.

I was extremely proud of our swimmers. Sienna-Jay, Chrylah, Litia and Haydee.  You all represented yourselves and our school with pride.  I look forward to taking our next group back to Durie Hill School in 2024 to challenge Durie Hill and Churton for the trophy again.

Congratulations to Durie Hill School for winning it the year
