Year 5 Make a Splash!

Year 5 have had an exciting and successful swimming experience, showing fantastic bravery and determination throughout. For some children, this was their very first time swimming, and they faced the challenge with confidence and a positive attitude. Others pushed themselves even further by swimming full lengths of the big pool – a huge achievement!

The children also learned important water safety skills, including how to stay safe by rolling onto their backs. They practised jumping into the deep end and used floats to help develop correct posture and technique for both front and back stroke. Over the course of the sessions, everyone made noticeable progress, and our swimming coaches were extremely proud of the improvements they saw.

We were also praised by members of the public for our confidence, respectful behaviour and willingness to take on new challenges. Well done, Year 5 – you should be very proud of yourselves!
