The words that come to mind when describing Nadia Calore, a diminutive matric learner at Assumption Convent School, are versatility and a fierce competitive spirit.
After ending 2019 with a host of athletics awards and walking away with the prestigious Sportswoman of the Year trophy at her school, Nadia recently showcased her athletic prowess, this time in the pool, at the school’s annual interhouse gala.

She then anchored all three open relay teams to place first with a new school record in the 200m backstroke relay.
Nadia also received the floating trophy for the top points scorer for her house, Assumpta, and another for the best open swimmer at the gala.
