ACC A DIVISON SWIMMING REPORT 2016
The ACC A Division Swimming Carnival was held at HBF Stadium Mt Claremont on Wednesday 23 March 2016.
It was a challenging but rewarding day for our committed AvÐÔ°® team who swam for and with each other, remaining true to our 2016 sporting maxim ‘One Team, One Dream’. Our students were professional, courageous and consistently impressive across all strokes against elite opposition.
We achieved our ‘Top 5’ goal and exceeded expectations by claiming 4th in the overall aggregate shield. Simply put, it was our strongest performance ever at an ACC Swimming Carnival!

MICHAAEL ORTON - State Rowing
Michael competed in the Sydney International Rowing Regatta in Penrith from 13th March to 21st March 2016.
As part of that regatta there are a couple of major events. The Australian Open Rowing Championships and the Australian Open Schools Rowing Championships, in which Michael competed in both.
In the Australian Open Rowing Championships he competed in four events (under 19 single scull, under 19 double scull, under 19 quad scull and Club Eight for the Swan River Rowing Club) with a range of results. In the singles and doubles he was eliminated in the semis, in the quad he came 6th in the Final and then finished with a strong second in the Final of the Club Eight.
In the Australian Open Schools Rowing Championships he competed in the singles sculls as a representative of AvÐÔ°® Christi College.
He progressed well through the heat, repechage and semis and missed the Final by one position. His final result was 7th in the Final.
Similarly, all his events in the Australian Open Rowing Championships were also in an open weight division making it very challenging to compete against boys that are up to 30kg+ heavier than him. Next year he will be old enough to enter some lightweight divisions, which will allow for a more level competition.
