Swimming

In this HOT HOT HOT weather we are thankful our school has a pool and a caretaker that keeps it super clean. Each week we have two lessons in our school pool and two opportunities to swim at lunchtime. Then 2 days a week for the first 5 weeks of term we also visit the local council pool for lessons in Water Safety as well as basic swimming skills.
We put together a movie of our first few times in the pools, but it is too large for our blog! :( Sad.
However here are some pictures of the awesome action happening.
 

 

 




Most of Hauraki love swimming and they nearly always bring their togs. They are really improving their diving  underwater swimming and general confidence in the water. Nearly all the class can swim 100m, which is 4 lengths of the Cameron Pool, nonstop. The others are well on the way and their skills have improved heaps in the last 4 weeks. Plus it is a heap of fun!!  

Check out these videos as well.




Cameron Pool is in the Mt Roskill area of Auckland and is run by the council through the YMCA Organisation.

  4. Hi Waikowhai school,
    My name is Hannah and I am a Year 8 at Yaldhurst Model School. I am excited to be commenting on your blogs this year! It looks like you have enjoyed swimming, what was your favorite part of swimming? Is it the lessons or Free Swim? We also have a school pool but it has been very cold these last few weeks in Christchurch so our pool had to be closed for the rest of the year :(. I hope to read more exciting posts as the year goes on.
    Thanks!

  15. As you can envision, it can have promoting benefits for the flow proprietors of the Morey Boogie brand as web scans for the words "boogie board" will possibly send people to their image rather than the numerous other bodyboard brands that exist today. In this way, when somebody asks you the contrast between "boogie boarding" and "bodyboa A review of the top Swim fins
