On Saturday, 27 pupils from Year 4 to Lower Fifth competed in an effort to win the House Distance Swimming Challenge. Open Morning visitors were impressed to see even the youngest pupils swimming 80 or 120 lengths to achieve their 2k and 3k Swimming Badges.
The Alexander Hebden-Edwards Trophy was won by Crick, who swam 19km 825m. The runners-up were:
- 2nd Place: Storrs – 18km 150m
- 3rd Place: Parker – 14km 50m
- 4th Place: Whiston – 13km 600m
Well done to all our swimmers for such an amazing achievement.
