Swimming Gala
The Kenya Swimming Federation, Kiambu County organized a swimming gala for Kiambu schools held in Regis school Runda. JSPS was one of the many schools that participated in the competitions. This was a perfect opportunity for us to showcase and put to work the hard work that we have been partaking in school. The events were held for two days, 18th and 19th of September 2021.
We arrived early in the morning, well and ready to give it our best and bring the medals home. The competitions started at 8:00 am and went on till 3:00 pm in the afternoon. The following day they also started and ended at the same time.
While the competitions were not a walk in the park, our swimmers were well and ready to give it all they had to represent our school in the best way possible. We therefore managed to scoop a total of 19 medals in all competitions. This also enabled us to be number 12 out of 28 schools that participated. Here are the medals we attained:

Though we know we can always do better than that, we thank all the participants for putting in a great effort in the competitions and earning the accolades they managed to earn. They selflessly and with great determination flew our flag higher and we couldn’t be more proud of them. We would also like to thank our beloved parents for their support in making this experience a success and one to remember. We are determined to ensure we provide the best services possible.
