Inter-House Swimming Gala (19 September 2024)
It was another exciting day as the school community gathered at Kowloon Park Swimming Pool for another all-day sports event – our annual Swimming Gala. Swimmers and non-swimmers all brought much energy to the pool, as our athletes gave it their all in a packed schedule of races, while spectators cheered them on in the stands.
The swimming events closed with a much-anticipated invitation relay event, with members of the DGJS Swimming Team joining their big sisters in the pool. In a spectacular race to the finish, they managed to come second in the relay, much to everyone’s delight and awe. This was topped off by the teachers’ line throw, with students eagerly cheering on staff members in this life-saving event.
In the end, the school congratulated Skipton House for clinching the Champion title in the Cheering Competition, and Hurrell House for being crowned Overall Champion after winning in both B and C grades. We are thankful to old girls and parents who came to support our swimmers, as well as our staff and student helpers, for coming together to enable the smooth running of the Swimming Gala 2024.
