Last Friday, 23 February, the Kainon Primary School pool was buzzing with excitement for the Schwimmfest! Our DSD families and friends came together in a spectacular show of support. A huge round of applause for House Moritz for clinching victory once again at this year’s event. A heartfelt thank you to our sports coaches and teachers and our Grade 3 and Grade 5 parents who provided refreshments on the evening. Your commitment made this day unforgettable. Your efforts do not go unnoticed!
Special accolades to our standout swimmers:
▪️ Mahiya Bhowani-Justin for making remarkable progress this year. Your improvement is astounding!
▪️ Michaelah Dray, our Junior Victrix Ludorum, showcasing exceptional talent.
▪️ Oswald Wichmann, awarded the Junior Victor Ludorum trophy.
▪️ Nia du Plessis, our esteemed Senior Victrix Ludorum. Your performance was nothing short of spectacular.
▪️ And Daniel Hill, our Senior Victor Ludorum, who not only excelled but also broke two records: the 50m freestyle previously held by A Schroeder since 2023, and the 50m backstroke previously held by M Windisch since 1989. Your dedication and hard work have truly paid off!
The evening concluded with a classic traditional showdown: the question lingering – would Herr Deppe take the plunge first, or would the bold Grade 7 class be the ones to push him in? Congratulations to all our winners, keep on swimming!
