Swimming Lessons

In Week 3 and 4 Room 11, Room 19 and Room 6 have been going to Swimming Lessons at Belmont Oasis Pool.

We went first thing in the morning so we had to wear our bathers to school. Then we would line up with the other classes, ready to get on the bus. Every day there was a different bus, some buses had TVs and some didn't.  The bus trip would last about 20 minutes and it was cold, boring and squishy. We liked it best when we got to watch TV on the way.

Once we got to the pool we had to line up for our swimming teacher. We were in Levels 1 to 7. Some people went in the deep pool, some outside and some in the little pool. We all learnt how to swim and how to rescue people. We played games and swam laps of the pool. Some people also practiced diving in.

After the lesson finished we had to quickly dry off and line up for the bus again.

Our favourite parts of Swimming Lesson were playing Volleyball in the water, doing swimming relays, diving for toys and playing games. Most of us passed our levels, but we all had fun!
