ROWING HIGH SCHOOL Rowing News 19 HIGH SCHOOL A massive term of Rowing is now drawing to a close with rowers being committed, training hard and reaping the rewards for their dedication. State Representation Congratulations to Bryson Salter and Luca Claassen for their recent announcement in the State Pathway Squad. Both rowers will be taking part in State Development Camps and corresponding regattas throughout Term 2. Bryson also took part in the Sydney International Rowing Regatta, Penrith NSW, in late March.

Highlight performance came from the Year 10A Girls finishing 1 st in the B Final, Year 10B Boys finishing 2 nd in the B final and Year 9A Girls finishing 2 nd in the B final. A massive congratulations to our Year 8s who took up the challenge, managed their nerves and succeeded on the water in their first Head of the River.
