Tiffin Titans raise over £1,700 for the school

Every year, Kingston Rotary run a fantastic day of Dragon Boat racing on the River Thames, where teams of up to 16 paddlers race against each other and raise lots of money for charity through sponsorship. This year, for the first time ever, Tiffin Girls' PSA joined forces with TOGA to form the Tiffin Titans team. Our ambitious and competitive TOGs were: Emma Plummer (1981-1988) who has recently returned from Australia and who is a former TOGA committee member; Caroline Portch (1986-1994); Margi Moutou (1994-1996); Chloe Davison (1998-2005); Vedika Parulkar (2014-2021), now studying at Bath University; Silka Bhattacharya (2014-2021) studying at Warwick University and who will now be joining the rowing club for her final year as a result of her Dragon Boat experience.

"What a brilliant day it was for Tiffin Titans. I was very proud to be part of a dragon boat filled with 16 Tiffin girl mums, Old Girls and some like me who wore both hats! The boat was filled with lots of laughs, focus and determination - we dared to win! We didn't lift the trophy that day, but raised a brilliant £1,700. Next year we will come back wiser and stronger!" (Margi Moutou (nee Rajkumar). TOGA generously subsidised the boat hire and a professional helm so all the money raised could go towards replacing the ancient AV equipment in the school hall. Well done to everyone who took part.
