Swimming Gala

March 22, 2012
On Tuesday 20th of March, Year 6 and a few Year 5 pupils visited Abbs Cross school to compete in a swimming gala. Backstroke, Freestyle and Breaststroke: These were the techniques that the Hacton children used. Jacob shot to success in the heats of the boys' Backstroke singles and won a place in the final, coming 4th out of 20 children. Lauren, Jordan, George, Rebecca and Matthew narrowly missed 1st place in their singles heats and the rest of the Hacton heroes (who swam the medley and freestyle relays) tried their best and put in amazing performances. Well done to everyone who participated!

Written by Isabella, Lauren and Ellen (Year 6).
