Year 5/6 Swimming Gala
Two teams from Y5/6 attended this event to showcase their swimming skills against other schools from East Staffordshire.
The teams competed in different races for breast stroke, back stroke front crawl and a woggle race. Races came thick and fast for individual girls and boys, and mixed relays took place for each of the different swimming strokes. Just like the Y3/4 Swimming Gala, the competition was of a high standard with some excellent swimmers taking part from across various swimming clubs. Nevertheless, our children portrayed high levels of determination and drive to finish every race and push themselves until the very end. We are extremely proud of both teams today for their attitude.
A huge congratulations to all involved - it was great to see so many new faces representing the school even at Y5/6.
