Alfie Howes completed the quartet of golds in the 100m freestyle.
There were silver medals for Oliver Way, 12, in the 200m and 100m freestyle, Ryan Griffiths, 18, in the 200m freestyle and 12-year-old Kirstie Flynn in the 100m freestyle.

Head coach Adam Mason said: “Our swimmers train hard all year to qualify for the Surrey Championships because it’s still a very important event on the swimming calendar and sets the scene for racing for the rest of the season.
“The coaches and I are delighted with our initial haul of medals from the first weekend.”
Meanwhile, Leatherhead Swimming Club’s Ben Simpson was the star of the day bringing home hat-trick of medals with a gold and two silver medals.
The 14-year-old won the 100m breaststroke, and then took second place in the 200m breaststroke and the 100m individual medley.
The action resumes this weekend at the Guildford Spectrum.
