Swimming Gala – Arun Leisure (22/03/23)

We were one of 15 schools competing in the gala this year,

Our team was very excited to attend this year, and as many of them had competed last year as Year 5s, it was great to see the improvement in both confidence and ability within the squad.

As a team, the children supported and encouraged each other magnificently and were a real credit to the school.

After doing quite well across the heats, we were in for the finals. There were strong swimmers from many schools, but we really shone in the boys’ relays – winning them both.

Once the children were changed, there was a nail-biting wait for the results. Our girls’ team came fifth. The boys’ team came 1st. Overall, we came 2nd.
