OLYMPIC bronze medallist Cassie Patten returned to the classroom recently as a Sky Sports mentor to a group of Year 7 students at Sir James Smith's Community School, Camelford. Cassie, who won bronze in the ten kilometre open water swim (freestyle) and also qualified for the finals of the 800 metre freestyle at the 2008 Beijing Olympics, has been working with the students to boost confidence and inspire them to make sound future choices. Both she and PE teacher at the school Janine Wynen recently spent a day with the youngsters, considering the qualities required to make successful decisions.
