Central Coast Grammar School could have uncovered a future Olympian, following a record breaking swim by student, Taylem Barnard.
At the school’s recent swimming carnival, Taylem swam the fastest 50m freestyle ever recorded by a female competitor in the school’s history.
Her time of 27.40 was faster than the previous record held by Skye Bloffwitch in the same age category, and it was faster than Anna Windsor’s, who has held the record in the 16 year age group since 1992.
Windsor went on to become an Olympian, with the school community ecstatic to see Taylem add such a milestone to her career record.
