Swim A Mile With A Smile!

On Friday the 20th of April, the St Wolstan's Transition Year group travelled to the National Aquatic Centre in Blanchardstown to take part in the Ian Daly Swim a Mile With A Smile Challenge. All of the girls raised money for the event, which donates all the money raised to Our Lady's Children's Hospital in Crumlin, and Barrettstown. I myself didn't swim, but I counted the number of lengths that the girls were doing. 64 lengths of the 25- metre pool was the equivalent to one mile, and in total the girls swam over 23 miles! It was a great success, and the girls who swam a mile by themselves were delighted. We then went to get a well- deserved lunch in the Blanchardstown Centre. It was a great day, and everyone was over the moon with how the trip went! :)
