In the Interhouse Championship it was once again Sariswati (405) who were too strong for Baruna (379) with Ganesha (280) 3rd, and Dewi Sri (266) 4th.

In a fitting finale to a great day of swimming, with 10 swimmers in each relay team, it was the Students who triumphed over a very strong Parent team and a very committed Staff team to win the annual Parent/Student/Staff relay.

We will shortly be announcing the BIS Swimming team to compete at the BSSA Championships on April 24th, and also the IISSAC team to travel to Bandung on the 27th of April.

Many thanks to the support staff, teachers and parents who made the day possible.
