Swimming Gala Success!
On the 4th of March we went to Felling to compete in the West Gateshead Local Swimming Gala.
When we got there we were all extremely excited however, we were also very nervous.
We were all their by 5:15 wearing our school tracksuits and when we all marched round the pool with our banner, on the way we spotted our future medals.
Then the announcer called for the first swimmers and before we knew it came to the team races , nobody was nervous because we were all going through it together.
At the end of it all lots of people were being called to the podium to receive their medals and lots of people from our school were also called up. Everyone from our school got a medal at the gala. Including all the relay teams winning either gold or silver.
And then it came to the last awards best girls ,best boys and best over all school, we were all on the edge of our seats…..
Then the announcer said "St. Mary’s Girls" and we went wild with excitement. Then imagine our surprise when we also won the overall schools trophy and the boys came an impressive second and all got medals.
A big well done to the "dream team"............
Boys- Connor Gibson, Andrew Latimer, Daniel Tones, Ben Harrison and Lewis Syron.
Girls-Katie Protheroe, Anna Ellis, Anya Sordy, Rachel Bell and Rebecca Jamieson
