Fun games on the last day with the swimming instructors!
On the second day of our school this term we were asked to bring our togs for swimming lessons. The best part was that Swim Magic Swim School, Glen Innes provided us with 3 lovely swimming instructors for 3 weeks ie. for Years 3-8 children.
They divided us into 2 levels and taught few techniques so that we can improve out swimming techniques. It was really cool as we also had fun games (as you can see below) to play on the last day with the instructors.
Swimming at School
Swimming started from the 2nd day we started school this term.
Its is really cool to swim.
We need to remember to bring togs everyday.
If we don't then we have to sit and read our favourite book(s) from National Library.
