At the beginning and end of each year, we run water safety sessions with our school. We take the whole school to the pool, we split into classes and we go through Water Safety skills developed by Royal Life Saving Society. It's an amazing opportunity to work with the kids and develop important and life saving skills. We focus on safe ways to enter and exit the pool, what to do in case of emergency and being able to cope in the water if you find yourself in a difficult situation.
This year we have been really lucky to have one of our parents (who is a qualified fitness instructor) run Aqua Fitness sessions.
These have been fantastic for the kids and they seem to really enjoy doing them! Hopefully this is something we will be able to continue next year.
