The Aoraki swim team was the biggest in years; 9 girls and 8 boys. The junior girls (Penny Keeling, Imogen Keeling, Johanna Alegado and Iessha Mansfield) won both their relays; claiming the title of Best Overall for the second year running. The senior girls (Tandia Gooch, Emily Hayman, Jocelyn Fellowes and Tiana Mansfield) won their Freestyle relay. As well as a haul of Aoraki swimming titles from Tiana Mansfield, Iesha Mansfield, Corbin Fraser, Johanna Alegado, Imogen Keeling and Tandia Gooch, Corbin added the the list of SKC Aoraki records with a time of 35.63 in the Boys 14&U 50 Breaststroke. Of the 54 records in Aoraki, St Kevin'ś holds 13; second only to Ashburton College.

Many thanks to the very committed parents who transported students to the Ashburton pool during the coldest, wettest storm in years; Neil Gilbert, Miriam Mansfield, and Jan Keeling.
