Swimming

Each year, year 4 learn some new skills. In 2014, 4SB had the opportunity to develop the skill of swimming. We had to take our swimming kit which consisted of goggles, a hat, trunks and some spare clothes to enable us to learn to swim. When we got to Shirley pool we noticed that there were different types of water levels in the indoor pool. There was both a shallow and deep water section . We learnt different skills every week from our instructor called Guy. Some examples are the rocket, the worm and the dolphin dive.

It was super fun! The last day of swimming was the best. We had an underwater tea party. Can you believe it?! Then we had a big surprise. A giant obstacle course. It was floating in the deep end of the pool and we had to get to the finish line in the quickest time. Everyone had at least one go and had lots of fun. It was the best time ever!
