Abercorn Gators at the second round of the swimming league

On 20th January, the Year 4 to 6 swim team competed in the second round of the London Independent School Swimming League. This gala was much the same as the first round, in that we competed against the same schools, at the same venue. The schools were Bute House and Latymer, and we competed at Bute House Swimming Pool. The difference, however, was that Abercorn swimmers showed that they have been working hard in training since the first round. The race was much closer than what they had been before, and our swimmers were challenging the opposition right up until the last stroke of each race.

There were meant to be two other school teams at the gala, but Jessie believes that they chose to withdraw when they heard Abercorn were coming! We want to say a big well done to the whole team, and want to make a special mention to those Year 4 swimmers who swam double the number of relay races to help Ryan in Year 5, who was the only swimmer in that year group.

Well done Gators!!! You have done us proud!!
