WELLINGTON School sixth-form student Flora Colmar, 16, has been selected to represent Great Britain in the under 17 girls' fencing squad.

Flora has been fencing for two years at the Princess Royal Sports Complex at the school, coached by teacher Georgy Felletar.

She earned her place in the squad by taking part in competitions all over the country over the last few weeks as part of the selection process.

Flora will represent her country for the first time in Germany in November.
