Great events this week
Year 5 surf safety
What a wonderful way to spend the last day of school. Our Year 5 students learned about beach and surf safety while on excursion today to North Burleigh beach. These are really important skills and knowledge for all Gold Coast kids to have.
Swimming fun days
On Monday and Tuesday, we held our annual Swimming Fun Days for students in Years 3 - 6. It is always a fun, two days by the pool, watching the kids compete in some competitive races, some fun races and also, their free swim.
Thank you so much to all the staff members who supported over both days, as well as the parents and ex-students who came and helped out too. There were lots of smiles and ribbons right across the pool deck.
New Records:
We have some amazing swimmers at Coomera Rivers, and this year, there was a whopping 19 records broken in the pool.
- Hugh (Year 3) - Backstroke 25m
- Allira (Year 3) - Back Stroke 25m
- Remmy (Year 5) - Freestyle 25m & 50m

Year 6 celebration day at Wet n Wild
Our Year 6 students loved their day at Wet n Wild together as they celebrated the end of their primary schooling. Thank you to the staff who attended to support their fun.
Oztag success
Noah & Seantayne played in a Queensland Super series tournament for Oztag on 3-5 December. They were both selected in the Queensland Boys 10/11 Years ALL STARS MERIT TEAM. Of 224 kids in Queensland, they are now the top 16 in the state for Oztag.
Well done boys. This is a very impressive achievement.
