Last Saturday, Grace (Lower V), Evie, Ella, and Hannah (all Lower IV) competed in the Great British Diving Federation’s (GBDF) National Novice, Intermediate, and Advanced diving championships in Cheltenham.

The students competed against very tough competition from all over the country.

All the girls performed brilliantly with Evie winning gold in the Intermediate Girls aged 12 and 13 years old, Hannah winning gold and Ella winning bronze in the Novice Girls aged 12 and 13 years old.

Grace won gold, at what was her first diving competition. She commented, “I was awarded first place at the GBDF National Novice, Intermediate and Advanced competition for my age group – 14-16. I just wanted to say thank you so much to Mrs Burn for encouraging me to start diving”

All four girls dive with Albatross Diving club which trains in The Abbey pool.
