Swimming-personal survival skills in class 3

2 groups from class 3 are working on their personal survival skills . Children had to wear shorts and T shirts to show they could tread water for 5 minutes then swim .
 Another skill was to jump in the water without their head going under-hence the woggles tied into "hats " on their heads.

Wendy's group listening carefully to instructions

                                                        checking "head gear" is secure

and jump...

showing they have listened...arms ready to slap against the water

taking a big step forward

                                                                      Jean's group listening

and getting ready

"hats" on and heads up

answering questions

                                                            keeping afloat with minimal movement

Next week children will be wearing long sleeved T shirts and trousers to represent real everyday clothes-not easy.
