Both the children enrolled in swimming lessons passed the stages they were in.
Amalia's first lot of swimming lessons (sea horse). She can:
Forward glide with no kicking
Forward glide with flutter kick 1m
Backward glide with no kick
Backward glide with flutter kick 1n
Long dog paddle with noodle 1m
Safety survival skills. Which I think involves entering the water safely and moving self around edge of pool by holding the edge (monkeying along)
She's now going for jellyfish ;)
Isaiah's second lot of swimming lessons this time at a stage 2 level. He passed stage 1 in the vac swim at the beach January just 3 months ago.
He's progressed VERY fast!!
He can now:
Glide forward and kick 3m
Glide backward, kick and recover
Free-style swim 5m (face submerged)
Scull/tread water
Water safety sequence (float 30seconds, be pulled to safety, & glide forward and recover to standing position.)
Isaiah is now in stage 3 ;)
I'm not sure whether to put them or one in again. Looking at the skills sheet I think Isaiah can get it ;)
