On the 10th of November Kindergarten Year 1, 2, 3 and 4 began swimming lessons. We learnt new strokes and survival tips in the water. We did back stroke, freestyle and also torpedoes. Some people got to do torpedo races. Another fun jump we learnt was the pin drop into the big pool.There were 6 groups a, b, c, d, e, and f. The teachers were all so nice to us and gave us great tips and advice about our swimming. We went to swimming everyday for 2 weeks. We will miss going. We loved it very much!!
swimming was the best but i wish i could see the photos

Hi ANgelina,
DeleteThere was a rule at the centre, no photos allowed. So you will just have to remember what it was like.
Hi Mrs Standring I loved swimming but I missed on the last lesson. The teachers were very nice indeed and on the blog I noticed you used a thingy that we talked about in silent reading time and started with the letter O
ReplyDeleteDo you mean - ONOMATOPOEIA!!!!
Deletea word that resembles or suggests the source of the sound that it describes.
Can you think of any other words that do the same thing?
HI Mrs Standring I just typed a big long comment but it mysteriously isn't here. I only got to go to swimming once and luckily it was Year Three that I got to see. I am glad all the children enjoyed it. I love swimming and think it is really important that children feel safe and can enjoy the water.
ReplyDeleteHi Mrs Misek,
DeleteI agree it is very important for children to feel safe in the water. I also learnt how important it is to try swimming with your goggle off as well as on and swimming in deep water.

DeleteHi Mrs Standring in swimming I have learned lots of fun things like :how to save people by a rope ,how to do a safety pin drop , how to do freestyle ,back stroke and breast stroke and my favourite one of all diving into the big pool! I had so much fun and I wish we could do this again next year.
ReplyDeleteWe are doing this next year, and i had fun as well.
DeleteHi Cassie,
DeleteWow you did learn a lot. Well done.
I miss swimming too and I learned that you always have to be under parental supervision incase you need help. I am looking forward to swimming next year!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThat is a very important lesson to learn Blake. Even when you are a competent swimmer it is important to be supervised by an adult.
Deletei miss swimming i wish it was still on! :(
ReplyDeleteIt won't be long Alex and you will be going to the swimming carnival which is just as much fun as the the swimming lessons.
