Year 7 Swiming programme

The year 7's swimming programme started on the 2 Feb. The aim of the programme is to have all students to be able to swim at least one stroke at the end of it.

All students will be challenged in their own ways. For beginners, their challenge will be to learn water confidence and at least one stroke. For the more abled students, they will be challenged to complete the STA's distance test of distance of 800m, 1000m or 1500m.

The first lesson has gone off well with the students being classified into the various groups. I am fully confident that your child will benefit from the programme.
