Level 4 Swimming Assessment

Today we had our Level 4 Swimming Assessment, at the Makino Pool in Feilding.  We were being tested on the things below - everything we've been practicing for the past five weeks!  Unfortunately it started to POUR with rain half way through our assessment, and it meant not everyone had the chance to be tested in everything.

  • perform a safe dive
  • 100m freestyle
  • 100m backstroke
  • 50m breaststroke
  • 50m sidestroke
  • 50m fully clothed
  • float on back for 3 minutes
  • tread water for 3 minutes

It was great to see everyone trying their best, especially those people who find swimming a real challenge.  Well done! You can read our individual reflections on our blogs.

Jack and Madison did a great job of taking some action shots throughout the afternoon too:

  1. It was a shame we had to cancel the rest of the assessment, but it was really awesome while we were there. It was a little bit chilly though!
