Today St. John's had the honour of hosting a 'Sports for Schools Athlete Visit'.


The children each had the chance to take part in a multi station fitness circuit, led by NI and Ireland's David Thompson. David competed at the highest level in swimming competing around the world and holds the Irish record for the fastest 100m free style ever.


David gave the children an inspiring assembly about his life in sport and the highs and lows of competing. The children had a chance to take part in a question and answer with the athlete.


Remember all sponsorship forms will be collected next week, with donations going towards new sports equipment for our school.
