Swimming

Our children have been very fortunate to have swimming lessons at the Glen Innes Aquatic Centre. They are divided into three groups according to their abilities in the water and children learn swimming skills. Each group has a qualified and very friendly instructor that teaches them for half an hour per session. There are eight sessions in total. Here is a short clip of what they've been doing so far.

Antonia's Swimming Paragraph

This is a paragraph to explain what we thought swimming means. Listen as Antonia explains.

Swimming is when a person goes into a body of water and tries to stay afloat. Or sometimes it's just for fun. A body of water is a swimming pool, a beach, a lake and a blow up pool too.
