A huge congratulations to our 21 representatives, who showcased the hard work, determination and team spirit that defines our club.

🚨 School is in this morning for Australian Olympic swimming stars Zac Stubberty-Cook and Ella Ramsay, who joined us at Iona College this morning for a training session with Iona Swim Club coach, and all-round legend, John Gatfield.

Zac and Ella are preparing for a long stint on the road, starting with a month in Glasgow for the Commonwealth Games starting in July, before heading to LA for the Pan Pacs in August. 🇦🇺

So it was definitely our pleasure to make both of them feel at home at Iona College. 🦍

Good luck to all our Aussies competing abroad in the months ahead!
