Swimming Competency...

The focus in our school is develop our students confidence and proficiency given that most of our students have high anxiety around water. We focus on strokes that keep them safe rather than developing a range of strokes. We currently do not have any students who are at the stage to progress onto self rescue techniques in the water, however we work with parents to encourage them to expose their children to swimming lessons out of school.
