About this word search
Australia has hosted the Summer Olympics twice, in Melbourne in 1956 and in Sydney in 2000, and Brisbane is set to host in 2032. Swimming and Rowing are sports where Australian athletes have a long record of winning medals, so those words may already feel familiar to young fans.
In this grid a word can sprint across, climb down or run diagonally, and it always reads forwards. Gymnastics is the longest word, and once you find its opening GYM the rest follows. Gold, Silver and Bronze are worth finding as a set, since they belong together on the podium.
During the Games, keep the printed sheet on the coffee table and tick a word each time it comes up in the coverage.
