Last Thursday, a group of our talented Paraparaumu Beach School students proudly represented our school at the interschool swimming sports held at the Kāpiti Aquatic Centre.
The day was all about participation, enjoyment, and giving each event a go. Our swimmers certainly embraced the opportunity with enthusiasm and determination. Alongside demonstrating great sportsmanship and team spirit, our students also achieved some fantastic results in the pool.
