This term we have been having Swim Safe lessons with Whaea Nikki. She has been teaching us how to swim constantly for 6 lengths of our pool, how to use life jackets and the importance of staying together in a huddle if we were ever stranded at sea. We learnt how to swim in rough water by making waves and currents with kick boards and how to use different survival strokes when we get tired. All these lessons will be extremely valuable in case of an emergency in the water, which is always a possibility as we live so close to the the ocean and swim often in rivers.
