This week all of the Reception to Year 5 students had daily swimming lessons at the SA Aquatic & Leisure Centre.

Our class had lessons every afternoon. Our Year 2 students swam for 45 minutes and the Year 3 students swam for 90 minutes.

We learned so many new skills – diving, pin drops, learning how to swim specific strokes properly, floating, safety tips/ skills and so much more!

Next week we will post some detailed swimming blog posts about the exact skills we learned and how we felt about our swimming lessons. Make sure you come back to the blog during next week to see our updates.

On the last day of our lessons we took our class bear, Biggles, to the pool so that he could see how much we’ve learned during the week. We took a couple of photos of Biggles by the pool. Here’s Biggles looking great poolside!
