Well done to our U9, U10, U11 teams and year 7/8 swimmers in their victory over Dulwich Prep on Tuesday. This was only our third gala of the term, and our swimmers are putting in some excellent performances.

There were some competitive individual races, particularly those where our swimmers dug in right until the end and didn’t stop racing until they touched the wall! This excellent attitude meant that more than four races were snatched from our competitors. What a great testament to their determination and commitment.

There are lots of opportunities for our pupils to improve their swimming. We have swim squads early on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday, as well as a Thursday lunchtime session. These are brilliant opportunities to improve technique and build race fitness – Remember, train hard so that the racing is easy!
