Year 5 welcomed Nick Strange (parent and governor) into school to give a fascinating talk to the children about how he got started in the sport and his long and illustrious career including his Olympic and

World Championships rowing experiences as a competitor and as a coach and mentor. He brought in his Olympic tracksuit, World Championship and Henley Regatta medals to show the children and answered all of their enthusiastic questions. Interestingly, he was once told

that he was too short to be a successful rower!
