HPS pupils participate in Swim Ulster Schools Championships 2018

VERY WELL DONE to pupils who participated in the Swim Ulster Schools Cup & Championship with children from all over NI. Holywood PS were well represented by 8 pupils across 16 events and in 2 age groups.

Erin Bond, Libby Carlton & Amelia Rodger - Breaststroke & Freestyle

Ellie Wallace - Butterfly & Freestyle

Bea Starks, Jorja McBride, Ruan Starks & Ben Wallace - Backstroke & Freestyle

Ellie, Jorja, Ben & Ruan qualified for Final races too!

Ben and Ruan are going to the Irish Minors School Championships in Dublin next term.

A special mention to Amelia who has never swum a competitive race and only tried her first tumble-turn last week. The others at poolside talked her through what she needed to do and Amelia stood up on the blocks and gave it a go, it was great to see.

CONGRATULATIONS boys and girls! What great TEAMWORK!
