There was no medal for 17-year-old Kiwi swimmer Erika Fairweather in Tokyo on Monday, but 10,000 kilometres away at her Dunedin school the pride levels went through the roof.

Hundreds of her schoolmates gathered for a special assembly at Kavanagh College in Dunedin 2.20pm, when Fairweather jumped off the blocks in the Olympic women’s 400m freestyle final.

The start brought a mixture of nerves and anticipation as they watched the head girl on a big screen set up on the assembly stage, and Fairweather’s eighth-place finish did nothing to shake the feeling that they were watching something extraordinary.

Well done Erika!
