2024 Vorgee Brisbane Senior Metropolitan Swimming Championships | Brief Event Wrap

2024 Vorgee Brisbane Senior Metropolitan Swimming Championships | Brief Event Wrap

Over the weekend, one of our Canterbury Taipans Year 10 swimmers – Aoibhe Kerrigan, raced in the 2024 Vorgee Brisbane Senior Metropolitan Swimming Championships at the Brisbane Aquatic Centre.

This was her first Brisbane level swimming meet after recovering from injury, so it was great to see her coming back and working hard on her training.

At this big swimming meet she achieved two Personal Bests – one in the 50m Freestyle (improved by 0.53 seconds) and the other in the 50m Butterfly (improved by 1.61 seconds).

Well done Aoibhe!

This coming weekend, six Canterbury Taipans swimmers will compete in the 2024 Speedo National Preparation Swimming Meet: Ella Tate, Pegella Beh, Kyle Budd, Elize Lee, Lyla Ries and Zara Sell.

Go Taipans!

Soroptimist International: Friday’s International Women’s Day Breakfast | Event Wrap

Last Friday morning, senior students and prefects Jasmine Wheatley (Performing Arts Captain), Ruby Wandschneider (Social Justice Captain), Ella Furlong (Goldsworthy House Captain) and Kaylee Tamala (Kime House Captain) represented Canterbury College at the Soroptimist International’s annual International Women’s Day Breakfast.


Established in 1921, Soroptimist International is a global volunteer organisation comprising approximately 66,000 club members across 120 countries.

Its central mission is advocating for human rights and gender equality, so Soroptimist International's United Nations representatives strive to ensure the voices of women and girls are heard.

They aim to empower women and girls to fulfill their personal and collective potential, achieve their aspirations, and advocate for equality within communities globally.

Breakfast attendees heard from Logan’s Centre Against Sexual Violence representatives about the important work they do supporting and empowering the women and girls in their care.

Proceeds from the morning were donated to the Centre to support more victims of sexual violence.

Our student leaders were grateful to hear from other guest speakers who shared their experiences and projects to support those in need in our local community.
