JUNIOR SCHOOL SWIMMING CARINVAL RESULTS
The Junior School students, adorned with splashes of colour, banners and mascots, arrived at the Canberra International Sports and Aquatics Centre for their annual House Swimming Carnival. They swam in many events, joined in the war cries and cheered for other House members. The highlight of the day was once again the Junior and Senior House Relays. Thank you to all the parents who came to support their children at the carnival and to those parents who gave up their time to assist with timekeeping and judging.

ACT Pacific School Games Selection Process for Swim Team 2008
As The Pacific School Games (PSG) will be held in Canberra in December, the usual ACTPSSA and SSSA Swimming Championships will not be held in their usual format. This event is being organized by ACT Swimming, ACTPSSA and ACTSSSA and schools will be required to provide staff to officiate.
A two-day selection trial will be held on 9 and 10 September at the AIS. Students will need to attend this trial to be selected in the ACT Pacific School Games Swim Team. All events that will be swum at the PSG will be held over the two days and it will be self-selecting, as all events will be swum as timed finals.
Students will also need to have swum in some event at the Zone carnival. Any student who has not participated in the school sport pathway will not be considered, unless they were ill and can submit a medical certificate for that day. Consideration will be given only to long distance specialists whose events are not swum at Zone level.
Information regarding the program for the two days and entry forms will be sent to schools and swim clubs in due course. There will be qualifying standards in each event but these will be fairly reasonable and set to have a maximum of 2/3 heats in each event. Entry times, will need to be long course times swum since October 2007, and be verified by the clubs race secretary or, for those swimmers not in swim clubs times must be swum at Zone Carnivals.
Because there will be some students who do not swim with clubs and wish to attend the trial, their times need to be verified, so a copy of the results needs to be sent to School Sport ACT for reference when doing entries for the selection trial.
