Our First Swimming Lesson

Kia ora koutou katoa.  While the weather this morning wasn't particularly warm, there was a stir of excitement as we got ready for our first swimming lesson.  The students eagerly positioned themselves on the edge of the pool with their feet in the water.  
Each student made their way across the pool and successfully submerged under water.  
Now it's time to practise blowing bubbles
 
Here we are learning to float on our tummy.

Wow!  Floating on our backs was a little tricky but we persevered and...
everyone worked together to help support one another. 
“Tau kē nei” 

Swimming is part of your child's education and an important life skill heading into summer.  Please ensure that your child has the correct swimwear and a plastic bag.  If your child is not swimming, they must bring a written note.  We look forward to sharing our next lesson with you.
