During the Olympics we paid particular care to the progress of Emma Twigg the New Zealand single sculler who had experienced frustrating results at the last few Olympics, coming 4th twice and missing the podium by split seconds.
She was connected to us by a student who is her nephew. Because of this we had an in and we made up questions and watched each race with nervous energy.
The final was raced during winter sports and we were spread far and wide but when she crossed the line first the roar could be heard across the school.
Here is Emma and the class.
Here is Emma and a big fan!
