St Albans District Swimming Gala 2016

On Saturday our swimming team, made up of 6 girls and 6 boys from year 5 and 6 took part in the St Albans District Swimming Gala.  It is always a very exciting event and very loud.  The event consists of 3 individual races for breaststroke, backstroke and freestyle for boys and girls and then a freestyle relay and medley relay for girls and boys.   We started off very well with individual wins in 2 of the girls' events and 1 of the boys' events.  We also won both the girls' and boys' freestyle relays.
Once the points had been added up the final scores placed the boys second overall and the girls first, a truly amazing result for the children.
All the children swam brilliantly and helped towards our final position....well done.
