Sailing success for Year 3 pupil

13.11.19

Congratulations to Year 3 pupil, S Johnson, who came 1st in the Papercourt Firefly Open on Saturday, crewing for her dad in the adult competition. They sailed 3 races against a variety of other teams, including two national champions!

She was the youngest sailor in the competition, won two of the three races and came second in the other, comfortably winning the event overall.

Having started sailing when she was just 3 years old in Singapore, she now sails an optimist dinghy on her own and races with her family in double handed dinghies like the Firefly and Feva.

A fantastic achievement and we look forward to following her future ocean adventures!
