St Mary’s Y7&8 Swimming team took part in the Tyne and Wear School Games Swimming Gala on Wednesday. The teams performed brilliantly and were a pleasure to take on the day. The encouragement and support shown by the students was excellent and contributed to the excellent results from both teams. The girls finished 3rd in the final of both the 4x50m Freestyle relay and the 4x50m Medley. The boys then matched their results, finishing 3rd in the 4x50m Freestyle relay and the 4x50m Medley finals. The girls team included Thea Cowie, Leah Martin, Lily Hall, Megan Darwood and Holly Tibs. The boys team included Archie McConnell, Jack Orr, Toby Caisley and Phillip Davidson. All students will receive their medals in their next assembly. A fantastic performance from all involved.
