Level 4 Swimming

Over the past five weeks, we've been swimming every day.  We've been working hard to improve our technique, swimming fitness, water confidence, diving and lots of other things.  Today we had a chance to show off our swimming skills.  We were tested to see if we could do these things:

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

Well done Room 8 - you were awesome today!  The Year 8 students also had time for ONE dive from the boards in the diving pool.  A special congratulations to the people who did this for the very first time.  Nice!
