Heelan Tompkins' Visit

On Wednesday Heelan Tompkins, the New Zealand equestrian paid St Mary’s a visit. She told us all about eventing and horse riding and how she even met her favourite athlete, Usain Bolt. She told us about her life as well and how she took Goofy, her mum’s horse, on an airplane. She even told us about how she loved big events and how she’d always want to go to the Olympics. She got into horse riding because most of the time horses were around her. She even showed us a cool video about the olympics. There was diving, taekwondo, tennis, pole vault, rhythmic and the fireworks and the country dancing. I enjoyed having Heelan at our school. She was really nice and funny.
