On Saturday 7th March, Erin, Annalisa, Sumayyah, Lily, Evelyn, Nidhi, Ava and Jessie competed in the Rookie Lifesaving competition at Droitwich Leisure Centre. They faced some really strong and challenging teams, excelling in the ‘torpedo buoy relay’ where they achieved first place. Overall, our team came a solid 4th, so well done to everyone who took part! A massive thank you as well to Molly, in the Upper Sixth, who proved to be a great team manager on the day!
