Lorcan and his mum started the challenge on Monday 14 September and are aiming to swim the length of the English Channel (22 miles) over a period of 12 weeks, which equates to 1416 lengths of a 25m pool.
Lorcan has recently been joined by his friend Teddy Smalley, another Year 8 student, and so far they have swum 220 lengths!
Well done to all those taking part in this amazing challenge.
