Swimming
Thursday 1st April 2021
This term we did two weeks swimming at Aqua Gym.
We went swimming with our buddy classes everyday and the students learnt how to float on our fronts and backs, kick and stroke with their arms. They also went in the big pool to learn about water safety.
On the last day it was a fun day where everyone created a whirl pool.
