Swimming

Welcome to Swimming!

The children will work towards improving basic technique in all four swimming strokes (front crawl, backstroke, breaststroke, and butterfly). Other skills such as push and glides, diving, water entries etc are also taught on a regular basis to familiarise the children and raise water confidence.
