To begin the year the GAA played softball and went swimming with the Pearl City GAA every Monday night. Several girls learned how to swim while those who could swim practiced different skills. The instructor at the Y.M.C.A. showed the girls various water skills and helped them perfect them, if a girl proved she could do one of the skills she then received points for it. As the year rolled on bowling became popular. Shannon entered the state contest and topped several of the larger schools in the area. The last semester ended by playing several kinds of indoor sports in which toumaments were held. They also hiked approximately twenty miles throughout the year.
