We have had a lot of fun in our recent Wai Swim sessions!

New Zealand has one of the highest drowning rates in the developed world, so Wai Swim decided to come out and teach us some survival tips when it comes to being in the water. We started with how to wear a life jacket properly and where we should be wearing one. We floated around on our backs to learn the correct position once in the water.

We also learnt how to check for dangers in the water - as well as learning how to jump in safely. We had to jump in like a pin and pop our hand up once we had popped back up to give the 'ok' signal. 

We cannot wait for our next session!
