swimming

This term SFOA is doing swimming in weeks 7 and 8. I love swimming and so far I’ve had a great time swimming. We swam in Graham Conden pool.

For swimming we went in dance groups , 3 dance groups in each groups going to swimming. I was in the third group.

Before we go swimming we go to the kakano hub to be partnered up with one of the little ones.  My buddies name is Honor she’s a very nice girl, then we have morning tea with them.

Once everyone had had there morning tea we got ready to go on the bus.
After we hoped back off the bus at Graham Conden we got ready to swim.

We had three teachers each teacher taught a different level of swimming 1 is the lowest and 3 is the highest. I was in level 2.  I’m with two of my friends.

In week 7 somethings that we have been doing is backstroke, freestyle, Breaststroke and survival backstroke. Backstroke is when you swim on your back, freestyle is when you swim and every three strokes you take a breath. Breaststroke is when you swim like a frog and survival backstroke is when you do Breaststroke on your back.
We also have been diving and practicing those.

In week 8 we did water safety starting on Wednesday. on Wednesday we did all sort's of stuff with life jackets.
on Thursdays we we where split into 2 groups. my group went to learn what to do when someone is stuck in a river. then we went to learn what you would do when your boat was seeking.
on Friday we had to swim in out PJ and it was SSOOO fun.

Here are some photos of my swimming:
