Chalmers Wins Girls’ School Swimming

March 16, 2021 at 3:39 PM

After a delay due to the recent Covid-19 lockdown, the Girls’ School gathered today to support their swimming finalists in the annual House Swimming Competition. In previous years, the girls have taken part in preliminary races held over three days prior to the finals event. This year, due to Covid-19, the prelims took place during class time in anticipation of the Covid-19 levels dropping. This meant parents were unable to watch their girls compete in their breaststroke, backstroke, freestyle, and butterfly heats. Thankfully, given the green light later in the week, it was announced that the students, their families and staff could congregate for the finals.

In high spirits, the girls showed great sportsmanship and cheered on their representative swimmers in the finals. The confidence in the water was evident as they not only raced for podium places but also House points. It was a fantastic day and the girls thoroughly enjoyed performing House chants, singing and dancing from the side-lines.

Well done to Chalmers House who came out on top for the second year in a row and to our Junior Year Group Champion, Kayla Knight and our Senior Year Group Champion, Zara Hong. Well done!
