In grade 5 the unit of inquiry looking at the scientific method so students were able to use their data from training to predict their outcomes and set goals. As a class we learned about pacing, breath control and overall improvement in technique.

Overall the students had a very successful day, most of our students achieved silver and some gold. Our top time for grade 4 14:38 and top time for grade 5 was 14:06.

We are proud of the determination all our students showed and look forward to another great semester next year in PHE.
