At the start of the term, we took a class of nervous but excited Dragonflies to their first swimming sessions. We had refusers, first time swimmers and those already attending lessons.
Fast forward 6 weeks and we now have a class of children who will ALL enter the pool, put their face in the water and let go from the side with at least one hand! We are so incredibly proud of the children’s perseverance, determination and bravery.
There are 3 little superstars who deserve a special mention for ‘feeling the fear and doing it anyway’. These children achieved their 25 metres by themselves. An incredible achievement for 4 and 5 year olds.
Four swimming sessions to go and we are excited to watch the progress continue. Who knows? We may be teaching the next Rebecca Adlington or Michael Phelps.
