Currie swimmers “fly” at the Edinburgh Schools Swimming Championships

On Sunday 28th October, a small team of 5 swimmers from Currie (S2 to S4 ) between them managed to bring home 3 Gold medals, one Silver and one Bronze in the annual Edinburgh Schools championships. This is a tremendous achievement against the best swimmers in the Edinburgh and Midlothian region and against large squads from many of the private and state schools; and is a testament to the dedication, talent and hard work shown by the Currie swimmers on a daily basis throughout the year

The results of these fabulous young people were as follows:

Cameron Finlayson; 100m Butterfly GOLD 200m Butterfly GOLD
Ciara Simms ; 100m Butterfly GOLD 200m Butterfly BRONZE
Andrew Sawkins; 200m Backstroke SILVER
Ross Muego and Caitlin Hamilton finished in the top 5 in all of their events and Ross did a tremendous personal best time in his Freestyle race.

Once again, Currie will be putting forward 3 representatives to the Scottish National Schools finals in January; Cameron Finlayson, Andrew Sawkins and Ciara Simms, and no doubt they will be a credit to the school.

Well done to them all!

Andrew, Ross, Ciara and Cameron – Caitlin had exams!
