Congratulations to Pacific Lutheran College who came away victors at the recent 2026 Paddle Queensland School Sprint Championships held at Lake Samsonvale Water Sports Association.
A big shout out to all schools, students, teachers, coaches and families involved in the day for display great sportsmanship and passion for paddling!
Thanks also to LSWSA and the City of Moreton Bay for their continued support of PQ and school paddling. It goes without saying an event such as this can only be a success with the support of sponsors, officials and volunteers.
More people paddling, more of the time.
