Taking place on Galbraith Lawn in glorious early summer sunshine, the girls were invited to race for one minute as fast as possible on a rowing machine. Girls were representing their houses, Austen, Bronte and Eliot.

There were some strong performances throughout the years with a school best of 310m for the girls from Lucy Edwards and 349m for the staff from Mr Artro-Morris.

Well done to all the girls who participated and congratulations to Bronte who won the overall competition. Finally a big thank you to the Putney High rowers who hosted the event.
