Apple Blossom Swimming Gala Success

Congratulations to the St Patrick's PS swimming team who took part in the Annual Apple Blossom Swimming Gala held at the Orchard Leisure Centre recently. The team consisted of 24 boys and girls from primary 5-7. On the day the swimmers had the opportunity to swim in individual events as well as in medley and freestyle relay races. After a very long and tiring day the team walked away with 32 medals made up of gold, silver and bronze. All swimmers who managed to qualify through their heats were also awarded with special ribbons for their achievements. A total of twenty four of these finalist ribbons were also picked up by our school team. Congratulation to all entrants on the day and to the P7 Apple Blossom Relay Team who swam so well in the big last race of the day.Thanks to Mr Marc Cullen and Mrs Bennett who helped Mr O'Hare and the team out on the big Day.
