Catering to both Primary and Secondary students, our Swim squads are designed to meet the needs of the individual. Students are encouraged to see the squads as a way to improve their swimming skills and at the same time increase their fitness. Under the guidance of experienced coaches and teachers, the students can train all year during school terms. A range of sessions are offered to Primary and Secondary students each week. Bunbury Cathedral Grammar School is proud to be the first Swimming WA Gold Endorsed School in WA.
