Swimming at Carlton
We are very lucky to have access to weekly swimming sessions in the Carlton School pool. Our regular swimming sessions are valuable opportunities to practice and integrate a wide range of learning skills personalised for each of our learners.
For some of our learners the freedom of movement and relaxation that the pool environment allows is a critical component of their development.
We are extremely fortunate to be able to access valuable specialised advice and guidance from Lizzy our physiotherapist, who joins us in the pool as often as she can. She ensures that our learners physical goals are integrated into our swimming sessions to maximise each learners development.
Our learners have opportunities to develop their swimming skills as well as supporting health and physical development.
We learn to manage ourselves in and around the pool as well as dressing and undressing and looking after our own belongings.
