Room 2 Takes The Plunge






This is Week 6 and we started off with swimming lessons at Stokes Valley Pool.



We were split up into 4 groups dependent on our swimming abilities; Sharks, Killer Whales, Dolphins and Aqua-ducks.






The swimming instructors were awesome, showing us how to streamline our bodies and how to blow bubbles under the water.


We used flutter boards to help us balance and keep afloat when we practised kicking in the water.  We held on to the board with both hands by extending our arms out in front of us.




We swam up and down the lanes to practise kicking, breathing and stroke skills.  It was fun but tiring.



 


We floated on our backs and used the flutter boards to keep us afloat.  It was hard to stay in a straight line but we managed to follow the instructions.
