Swimming News

The Prep School Term 4 swimming season consisted of three galas over seven days. The junior and senior boys kicked off with the prestigious Individual Pentangular Gala, hosted by Western Province Prep, where the fastest swimmers from across the schools competed to determine the best in their age groups across the various strokes. Bishops fared well against the opposition and finished the gala in third place overall, an improvement on last year. 

The two galas that followed were the Junior and Senior Relay Galas, both hosted by Rondebosch. These always bring great excitement as the boys find creative ways to encourage their teammates to empty the tank and swim their fastest. Both galas were spirited, and we commend the boys on their efforts. Overall, Bishops placed fourth. 

The combined season saw Bishops finish in third place. While there was encouraging improvement from the first term, there is still room for growth as we continue striving to be more competitive. With the warmer weather now upon us, this is the perfect opportunity for the boys to spend extra time in the pool and continue developing their skills.

Well done, boys. We look forward to next season.
