NSWIS swimmers have continued to shine on day six of competition at the Water Cube in Beijing with star swimmer Peter Leek leading the way.

Leek has had an astonishing week and added to his medal tally on Friday night by winning silver in the Men's 400m S8 Freestlye in a time of 4:13.16. It took a world record to beat Leek by the swimmer from Great Britian. Fellow NSWIS swimmer Matt Levy finished 7th in the event.

Jacqui Freney also added to her individual medal tally by winning bronze in the Women's 400m S8 Freestyle. Freney won silver earlier in the week in the Women's 100m S8 Freestyle.
