TALENTED Nunnery Wood High School pupil Oliver Smith will swim at a competition in Holland in July.

At the age of four his swimming teacher recognised he had a natural talent and recommended he join a club.

Smith took his teacher’s advice and joined Pershore, where he trains four times a week.

The year seven pupil at the Worcester school said: “I have travelled abroad for competitions before and I’m looking forward to the next event in Eindhoven.

“I plan to continue to train hard and hopefully progress in my swimming.”
