What a special day it was on Wednesday. We were invited to host a visit from Olympic Gold Medalist swimmer Rebecca Adlington. She was visiting Lanarkshire as part of her new swimming scheme and as a Commonwealth Games ambassador.

The children were all very excited in the lead up to her visit. Many of the classes prepared questions to ask her. The questions were quite thoughtful and Rebecca was able to give lots of information about her life as a competitive swimmer.

It was truly a special occasion, one that we will remember for a long time.
