GSA Eastern Region Swimming Gala

Congratulations to the nine Junior School girls who joined the Senior School squad to represent St Mary’s at the GSA Eastern Region Swimming Gala.

The event, hosted by Stamford School, involved girls from schools as widespread as Warwick and Derby and the standard of competition was very high.

The U11 team consisted of selected girls from Year 5 and 6 and the programme of events included 4x 25m Medley and Freestyle relays as well as 25m races in backstroke, butterfly, breaststroke and front crawl.

"The girls all swam brilliantly; they all will have gained invaluable experience from participating in a competitive gala and will hopefully be inspired to continue to swim and train regularly."
