Friday 10th June - Penguins Swimming Gala - Winchester
On Friday we took 10 children to Winchester to take part in the annual Penguins Swimming Gala. The children competed in mixed stroke relay heats, freestyle relay heats, year 4 individual 25m races and the invitation float race. The girls came 2nd in both of their heats but sadly just missed out on qualifying for the finals. The boys qualified for the freestyle relay final and came 4th overall! It was a brilliant morning of fantastic swimming - well done all!
