Kings on the Water


This Monday morning saw the first session on the water at Exeter Rowing Club run by South West Rowability. SEN students from The Kings School in Ottery St Mary had been training on indoor rowing machines since November last year. Some had already put their training to good use, competing at the Devon Winter Ability Games and all the students had been given the option of a session on the water at Exeter RC.

On the day the students were lucky enough to have bright sunshine greeting them when they arrived at Exeter RC and they all put in a lot of effort and performed really well, transferring their indoor rowing skills successfully onto the water. Hopefully they will continue to pursue rowing in the future either indoors or at their local club.
