Well done to all our sailors who represented our school in the recent Musnter School Team Racing event held in the Royal Yacht Club, Crosshaven.
Our school was well represented with two teams attending the event.
Due to weather conditions the racing had to be abandoned. This resulted in a ‘Draw of Names’ for the selection of teams for the nationals. Each competing school was given an opportunity to enter, with only one team representation per school. Unfortunately, S.C.S. was not successful in this draw.
A huge thank you to all the parents and supporters who travelled to the event & assisted with boat rigging and de-rigging.
In the spirit of volunteerism, a huge thanks to the race officials and race organisers, without whom such events wouldn't get off the ground.
We look forward to growing this club within our school.
