The Ryleys is celebrating success once again, this time in the swimming pool, after two pupils reached the finals of a national event.
Brother-and-sister, Huw and Charlotte, from Prestbury, both made it through to compete against the best young swimmers from across the country at the Independent Association of Prep Schools (IAPS) National Swimming Championships, held in Crawley last weekend.
Huw won Gold in the 25m Butterfly, becoming the fastest in his Under 10 age group in the country. Charlotte came 12th in the 50m Freestyle for the Under 11s, which is also a fantastic achievement.
Pat Barrett, Headmaster at The Ryleys said “Huw and Charlotte have done fantastically well to reach the finals of their events. To then go on to be the 12th fastest girl in the U11 50m freestyle and the national champion in the U10 boys butterfly is outstanding. We are all very proud of them.”
