On October 4th and 5th, Morogoro International School (MIS) proudly hosted sixteen schools from across Tanzania for one of the most exciting events of the sporting calendar — the Invitational MIS Swim Gala 2025.
The competition brought together over 220 swimmers and around 500 visitors, transforming the MIS campus into a vibrant hub of energy, excitement, and camaraderie. The atmosphere throughout the weekend was electric — a celebration of skill, teamwork, and the unifying power of sport.
A Showcase of Talent and Teamwork
MIS was represented by a strong team of 41 swimmers, ranging in age from 8 to 20 years old, who displayed great determination, spirit, and sportsmanship. Their commitment in the pool was matched by their support for one another on the sidelines — a true reflection of our school’s values of Respect, Integrity, and Responsibility.
Over the two days of competition, our swimmers achieved outstanding results, bringing home 45 individual medals and contributing an impressive 840 points to the overall team total. These achievements reflect not only their individual talent but also the dedication of our coaching team and the encouragement of the wider MIS community.
A Community Effort
The success of the gala would not have been possible without the tireless efforts of our staff, volunteers, parents, and supporters, whose enthusiasm and teamwork ensured the smooth running of the event. From timekeepers and marshals to catering teams and cheering spectators, every contribution played an important role in creating an unforgettable weekend of sport.
Participants and visiting teams alike praised the warm hospitality, efficient organisation, and friendly spirit that made this gala such a success. The event once again reinforced MIS’s reputation as a centre of excellence — not only in academics but also in athletics and community engagement.
Looking Ahead
As we celebrate the achievements of our swimmers and the success of this year’s event, we look forward to continuing to build on this momentum — inspiring our students to strive for excellence both in and out of the pool.
Congratulations to all our swimmers and heartfelt thanks to everyone who made this weekend such a memorable one.
