Very many congratulations to the team that braved 2 degree C water on 24 January 2009. They were racing against the UK's most experienced Cold Water swimmers, many of whom had completed solo swims of the English Channel.

Out of 38 relay teams, the quartet of George Benfield, Evgeny Shuvalov, Trishan Vaikunthanathan and Mrs Granville-Chapman managed to win the silver. Evgeny also won individual silver in the under 20 year age group, narrowly beating George into an impressive third. Trishan also made the final and did very well to come 5th.

The teachers also decided to give the individual races a go and Miss Ward won bronze and Mrs G-C gold in their races.

Well done to all on a top day out!
