About Jenna
Meet Jenna. She’s fifteen, and one of Australia’s rising swimming stars. It’s not just Jenna’s unwavering commitment and hard work that sets her apart (though over 25 hours of pool training a week starting at 5am each day definitely helps!); it’s her enduring attitude, self-motivation, and ability to recover from setbacks that puts her in a league (or lane?) of her own.
Jenna has big dreams, with hopes to one day compete on an international level at the Commonwealth Games or the Olympics. The fuel that could very well get her there? Her ability to turn something that some might take as failure into something that drives her forward, to recognise how hard she’s worked to get there and just keep swimming.
