SATIS Swimming: 

In week 7, our SATIS Swim Team travelled to Hobart to compete in the annual SATIS Swimming Carnival. It was a very consistent performance from our MRC team with both the Boys and Girls Co-Educational Shield coming in 5th place overall. 

A big thank you to Bay View Villas for accommodating MRC during our stay as well as Kerger’s Coaches for their transport. This has now concluded representative swimming for Marist Regional College in 2022.
