St Albans Primary Schools Swimming Gala

On Saturday evening our swimming team, made up of 13 year 5 and 6 children, took part in the St Albans Swimming Gala.  It is always a really exciting event, with lots of noise, which the children love taking part in.  All the children take part in one relay event and some have an individual race aswell.   The children were fantastic and we had some great results in the races, particularly for the girls.  In the girls' individual races we came 3rd in the backstroke and freestyle and 2nd in the breaststroke.  In the relay races the boys came 3rd in the freestyle and 4th in the medley, while the girls came 2nd in freestyle and 2nd in the medley.    Overall the girls' team came a brilliant 2nd, and the whole team were 4th.
Well done to all the swimmers, it is our best result since we started participating in the gala.
Thank you to all the parents who supported the team.
